Never, never, never, never sail you through with me
Never, never, never, never sail you through with me
Cause baby, baby, baby, I could never ever set you free
If you leave me pretty baby, life would never be the same
I said if you leave me daddy, life would never ever be the same
Cause it would hurt me every time I'd hear somebody call your name
I said Lord, have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Please, I said Lord, have mercy, please have mercy on me
Just take me on home, cause I'm tired of this misery
