Mission of Mercy - Martha Davis, The Motels

I can’t give up I heard him say, the day he left

Fadin' footsteps on hot cement

I don’t know where he went, but he left in a hurry

Sayin' somehing about a mission of mercy

Mama hasn’t been sleepin' well at all

As she lies stretched out in the hall

Waiting for him to call

Now the mercy of his missioon still isn’t quite clear

A different angle than what it would appear

I don’t know where he went, but he left in a hurry

He sayin' something about a mission of mercy

Mama hasn’t been sleepin' well at all

As she lies stretched out in the hall

Waiting for him to…

Call us please someday

At least you could explain

Call us please someday

I never knew mercy could feel this way

Mama hasn’t been sleepin' well at all

As she lies stretched out in the hall

Doesn’t seem like my mama at all

She’s waiting for him to…

Call us please someday

At least you could explain

Call us please someday

I never knew mercy could feel this way
