Mercy Lives Here

An empty street in Ohio
 Lookin' to kill some time
 We stumbled into Cairo
 Egypt must be divine
 And the jukebox plays
 While a little down sways
 Hey, it's two songs for a dime
 And I know that mercy lives here
 Oh, mercy lives here
 At home with the saints and the sinners
 Mercy lives here
 A girl in the corner is crying
 The silver haired lady's alone
 And the queen of the boulevard's trying
 To hussle somebody home
 The smokin' man shakes
 While the broken girl aches
 And the clown starts to sing his song
 He sings mercy lives here
 Oh, mercy lives here
 At home with the saints and the sinners
 Mercy lives here
 Mercy, oh, mercy
 Mercy, oh, mercy
 And the clown at the bar
 Laughs and lights a cigar
 And we all start to sing along
 We sing mercy lives here
 Oh, mercy lives here
 At home with the saints and the sinners
 Mercy lives here
 I know that mercy lives here
 I know that mercy lives here
 Oh, mercy, mercy
