letra de oh no, mercy me - jim dawson

all they really wanted to do was to spend their last night downtown
’cause they were down to their last few bucks, and they were hot to blow that town
so she threw on her ruby red rouge, and then she trucked to the local store
and, honey, that’s where she was standing when the man walked in the door

singing, oh no, mercy me
tonight’s my night to get high
oh no, mercy me
poor folk just got to get by

now neither one of them would lеt on that they had ever mеt before
and he would make it look good at the bar before heading for the dancing floor
and he’d give her a charming smile, she’d shoot him a toothy grin
and, honey, no one in the barroom knew the show was about to begin

she’d sing, oh no, mercy me
tonight’s my night to get high
oh no, mercy me
my mama taught me how to get by

and their feet started flying at amazing speed
they were twirling and whirling in harmony
and the crowd was cheering, and they all began to sing

oh no, mercy me
where’d you learn to dance like that
oh no, mercy me
and then the gentleman would pass his hat
well, it must have been about 110 when they finally left the floor
and just like that, he’d grabbed his hat, and they’d stepped on out the door
’cause tomorrow would be another town, honey, it would all go down again
’cause, honey, just like fred and ginger, it was the business they were in

they’d sing, oh no, mercy me
tonight’s our night to get high
oh no, mercy me
poor folk just got to get by

oh no, mercy me
tonight’s our night to get high
oh no, mercy me
poor folk just got to get by
