The Rolling Stones

[Verse 1]
Have mercy, have mercy, baby
Have mercy, have mercy on me
Well I went to see the gypsy
To have my fortune read
She said Man, your baby going to leave you
Her bags are packed up under the bed

[Chorus]
That's right
Have mercy, have mercy, baby
Have mercy, have mercy on me

[Verse 2]
But if you leave me baby
Girl if you put me down
I'm going to make it to the nearest river child
And jump overboard and drown

[Chorus]
That's right
Have mercy, have mercy, baby
Have mercy, have mercy on me

[Verse 3]
I said hey hey baby, hey hey now
What you trying to do
Hey hey baby, hey hey now
Please don't say we're through
Have mercy, have mercy, baby
Have mercy, have mercy on me
But if you stay baby
I tell you what I'm going to do
I'm going to work two jobs, seven days a week
And bring my money home to you

[Chorus]
That's right
Have mercy, have mercy, baby
Have mercy, have mercy on me

That's right
Have mercy, have mercy, baby
Have mercy, have mercy on me

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
