Pixies-Mercy Me Lyrics
Pixies-Mercy Me Lyrics
Have mercy on me, have mercy on me
I lost my dog down in Tennessee
Mercy me, curse me
I lost my dog down in Tennessee
Now everyone's looking for something to do
We went to take a walk on the avenue
We heard the tragedy
We heard her sing all through the night
I remember her then, bathed in the light
Of that atomic number ten
Never moved to talk and you could not smile
But that face as you walked said, "I'll be back in a while"
I called the police, I called the National Guard
I prayed to the Prince of Peace and I prayed to Saint Bernard
Have mercy on me, have mercy on me
I lost my dog down in Tennessee
Mercy me, curse me
I lost my dog down in Tennessee
Country music filled the air
Reddish orange from the star
Upon her hair and her guitars
But I don't see you anywhere
Have mercy on me, have mercy on me
I lost my dog down in Tennessee
Mercy me, curse me
I lost my dog down in Tennessee
