[Verse 1:]
I was standing in line
At the city bus stop
Soaked to the skin from every rain drop
I see you driving by
Just like a phantom jet
With your arm around some little brunette
You say you won't be home
Because you're working late
Honey, I'm no fool
You've been out on a date
The lipstick on your collar gives your game away
It's strawberry red
And mine's pink rosé
[Chorus:]
Have mercy on me
You treat me so bad
I'm in misery
It's breaking my heart
Can't you see?
Baby, baby
Have mercy on me
[Verse 2:]
Well
I called you up on the telephone
I could hear you was playing Haggard and Jones
I knew right then
That there was something wrong
There's only one reason you play cheating songs
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Verse 3:]
Went to the bank with my little checkbook
The cashier he gave me the strangest look
He said you ain't got no money
Cause you're overdrawn
Your man took it all and he's done gone
[Repeat Chorus:]
