Take this pistol, for my wife
You know it will never lie
When there's trouble, we're getting some
Mercy is the name

You can call me please
You can call me please
But you can make your peace
Down on your knees

Use this sixgun, as a dice
Pick a number, you can always pick a fight
It's just the devil, having fun
Mercy is the name

You can call me please
You can call me please
But you can make your peace
Down on your knees

Never trust a poor boy who smiles
And never take your lover for an early morning ride
Blame me, fail me, I'll leave you to decide
But I'd never kiss an angel who had something to hide

You can call me please
You can call me please
But you can make your peace
Down on your knees

Mercy is the name - call me please
Mercy is the name - make your peace
Mercy is the name - call me please
Mercy is the name - make your peace
Mercy is the name
