Everybody's
Cryin Mercy
I
don't believe the things i'm seein'
I've been wonderin' 'bout some things i've heard
Everybody's crying mercy
When they don't know the meaning of the word
A bad enough situation
Is sure enough getting worse
Everybody's crying justice
Just as soon as there's business first
Toe to toe, touch and go
Give a cheer and get your own souvenir
Well you know the people running round in circles
Don't know what they're headed for
Everybody's crying peace on earth
Just as soon as we win this war
Straight ahead, gotta knock em dead
So pack your kit, choose your own hypocrite
You don't have to go to off-broadway
To see something plain absurd
Everybody's crying mercy
When they don't know the meaning of the word
Nobody knows the meaning of the word

Guilty
Yeah
baby, i've been drinking,
And i shouldn't come by i know
But i found myself in trouble darling,
And i had nowhere else to go
Got some whiskey from a bar man,
Got some cocaine from a friend
I just had to keep on moving,
Till i was back in your arms again
----
Well i'm guilty, yeah i'm guilty,
I'll be guilty for the rest of my life
How come i never do,
What i'm supposed to do
How come nothing that i try to do ever turns out right
----
Well you know how it is with me baby,
You know i just can't stand myself
It takes a whole lot of medicine,
For me to pretend to be somebody else.

I
Feel The Same
i
feel the same (the bonnie raitt collection)
Say goodbye,
Well i know it's true.
I know you're leaving me but i,
I'm leaving too.
You won't forget me,
Or the sound of my name.
Please believe me,
I feel the same.
It seems so empty now.
Clo-ose the door.
Ain't it hard to believe that you ever,
Lived this way before.
All that nothing,
Causes all that pain.
Please believe me,
I feel the same.
(guitar break)
Well this broken soul,
That i know a, a heart that's breakin'.
You can't make it whole
Until you know what has been taken.
And all those pieces,
Uh that you find them all your own.
(guitar fills in the missing tag lyric)
I said goodbye.
Now you know it's true.
You said you're leaving me, but honey i,
I'm leaving too.
You won't forget me
Or the sound of my name.
Please believe me,
I feel the same.
Please believe me,
I feel the same.
(guitar break, and fade)
