The Kneeling Drunkard's Plea

專輯: Love, God, Murder

歌手: Johnny Cash

時長: 2:32

'Lord, have mercy on me'

Was the kneeling drunkard's plea

And as he knelt there on the ground

I know that God in Heaven looked down

I went down by an old country church

I saw the drunkard stagger and lurch

And as he reached his mother's grave

I saw that drunkard kneel and pray

'Lord, have mercy on me'

Was the kneeling drunkard's plea

And as he knelt there on the ground

I know that God in Heaven looked down

'Bring my darling boy to me'

Was his mother's dying plea

And as he staggered through the gate

Alas, he came just one day too late

Three years have passed since she went away

Her son is sleeping beside her today

And I know that in Heaven, his mother he'll see

For God has heard that drunkard's plea

'Lord, have mercy on me'

Was the kneeling drunkard's plea

And as he knelt there on the ground

I know that God in Heaven looked down

I know that God in Heaven looked down
