@SONG: "Mercy Mercy"
(Covay/Miller)

Have mercy, have mercy, baby
have mercy, have mercy on me
well i went to see the gypsy
to have my fortune read
she said "man, your baby gonna leave you
her bags are packed up under the bed,"
that's right

Have mercy, have mercy, baby
have mercy, have mercy on me
but if you leave me baby
girl if you put me down
i'm gonna make it to the nearest river child
and jump overboard and drown,
thats right

Have mercy, have mercy, baby
have mercy, have mercy on me
i said hey hey baby hey hey now
what you trying to do
hey hey baby hey hey now
please don't say we're through

Have mercy, have mercy, baby
have mercy, have mercy on me
but if you stay baby
i tell you what i'm gonna do
i'm gonna work two jobs, seven days a week
and bring my money home to you
thats right
Have mercy, have mercy, baby
have mercy, have mercy on me
yeah

Have mercy, have mercy, baby
have mercy, have mercy on me

@SONG: "The Last Time"
(Jagger/Richards)

Well I told you once and I told you twiceight.
But ya never listen to my advice  goin' right.
You don't try very hard to please me
With what you know it should be easy

Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I don't know. Oh no. Oh no.

Well, I'm sorry girl but I can't stay
Feelin' like I do today
It's too much pain and too much sorrow
Guess I'll feel the same tomorrow

Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I don't know. Oh no. Oh no.

Well I told you once and I told you twice
That someone will have to pay the price
But here's a chance to change your mind
Cuz I'll be gone a long, long time

Well this could be the last time
This could be the last time
Maybe the last time
I don't know. Oh no. Oh no.
Well, this could be the last time


@SONG: "That's How Strong My Love Is"
(Jamison)

if I was the sun way up there
I'd go with my love everywhere
I'll be the moon when the sun go down
to let you know i'm still around
that's how strong my love is baby that's how strong my love is
that's how strong my love is that's how strong my love is

I'll be the weeping willow drowning in my tears
you can go swimming when you're here
i'll be the rainbow when the sun is gone
wrap you in my colors and keep you warm
that's how strong my love is that's how strong my love is
that's how strong my love is that's how strong my love is

i'll be the ocean so deep and wide
i'll dry the tears when you cry
i'll be the breeze when the storm is gone
to dry your eyes and keep you warm
that's how strong my love is that's how strong my love is
that's how strong my love is baby that's how strong my love is

that's how strong my love is that's how strong my love is

@SONG: "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction"
(Jagger/Richards)

I can't get no satisfaction,
I can't get no satisfaction.
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can't get no, I can't get no.

When I'm drivin' in my car
and that man comes on the radio
and he's tellin' me more and more
about some useless information
supposed to fire my imagination.
I can't get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that's what I say.

I can't get no satisfaction,
I can't get no satisfaction.
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can't get no, I can't get no.

When I'm watchin' my TV
and that man comes on to tell me
how white my shirts can be.
Well he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
the same cigarrettes as me.
I can't get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that's what I say.

I can't get no satisfaction,
I can't get no girl with action.
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can't get no, I can't get no.

When I'm ridin' round the world
and I'm doin' this and I'm signing that
and I'm tryin' to make some girl
who tells me baby better come back later next week
'cause you see I'm on losing streak.
I can't get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that's what I say.

I can't get no, I can't get no,
I can't get no satisfaction,
no satisfaction, no satisfaction, no satisfaction.


@SONG: "Cry To Me"
(Russell)

When your baby leaves you all alone
and nobody call you on the phone
doncha feel like crying
doncha feel like crying like crying like crying
c'mon baby, cry to me

when you're all alone in your lonely room
and there's nothing but the smell of her perfume
doncha feel like crying
doncha feel like crying like crying like crying
c'mon baby, (c'mon) cry to me

nothing could be sadder than a glass of wine alone
loneliness loneliness, it just a waste of your time
but you don't ever you don't ever have to walk alone
you see, so c'mon take my hand
