I Could Cry
by 
Junior Wells 
recording 1993 
from 
Feels Like Rain (Silvertine 41498) 
Oh, sometimes I could cry 
Woman I could just lay down and die 
Oh, sometimes I could cry 
Woman I could just lay down and die 
Well if you listen to the story now 
My pal Buddy will tell you the reason why 
My baby needs and she love me 
In the evenin' when I come home 
Whoa, my baby needs and she love me 
In the evenin' when I come home, oh yes 
But seems like everything I do 
Everything I do is wrong 
I used to have plenty money 
The finest clothes in town 
Nothin' ever got in my way until 
You come to get me down 
I'm say'n mercy, mercy, mercy baby 
Ooh have mercy on me, oh yes 
I'll always love you darlin' 
No matter what you do 
Now listen closely baby 
I'll try to change my ways 
Don't go kickin' up trumped up troubles 
Worry all my days 
Mercy mercy mercy baby 
Good God mercy be all around 
Yes you know I'll be right there 
When the grave digger laid her down
