And he examined from head to toe
To try to get myself a loan
An' he's says it's gonna rain an' snow
But we hear that you won't be workin' here much longer
Won't you please look down on me?
Whatever's wrong with ya, young man
A little mercy is all I need
But you look sick enough to die"
I was listenin' to the weatherman 'while ago
I say, angel of mercy
An' my son is down with the flu
He sent me to the company doctor
Oh
Won't you please look down on me?
And I can't even 'fford them soup
Oh, angel of mercy
My daughter's got pneumonia
Oh angel
They set my furniture out doors
The finance company
A little mercy is all I need
Lord have mercy
My whole family's sufferin' from malnutrition
I say, angel of mercy
Cut my lights off this mo'nin'
They said, "I would let ya have it young man
They just can't recieve my check
I went to the credit union
Oh
Angel of mercy
He said, "Fella I don't know what's wrong with ya
My x-rays just won't show
They say they want a payment by Friday
Oh, angel of mercy
Or they want all-a the furniture back
Angel of mercy
Won't you please look down on me?
