Sisters of Mercy Songtext

von Thin Lizzy

You cried, you cried

Oh.

You've been living like a hobo in the hallways
Oh way too long
You've been sleeping in the doorway
Oh what's gone wrong?
And you cry like a baby
A baby whose mama's gone
As you holler from your squalor
Into the distance

The sisters of mercy will come (Praise)
Little sisters of mercy
The sisters of mercy will come
Little sisters of mercy

Father dear father
What's gone wrong?
You? overcome
? mercy?
Into the cold black night
She stands alone
Oh father dear father
What have I done?

The sisters of mercy they come
Hail sisters of mercy
The sisters of mercy they come
Hail sisters of mercy
The sisters of mercy they come
Hail sisters of mercy

Mama mama
? a boy
In this smile you gave me there is sadness
There is no joy
I am weary I am lost I am overcome
If?
Oh mama mama
What will? (Help me!)

The sisters of mercy they come
Hail sisters of mercy
The sisters of mercy they come
Hail sisters of mercy
The sisters of mercy they come
Hail sisters of mercy

Yeah.oh.

?

The sisters of mercy they come
?

And the bells that will ring
? nBabylon
We are weary we are lost
Like children
We are? we are frightened
Oh mama oh mama what have I done?

The sisters of mercy they come
Hail sisters of mercy
The sisters of mercy they come
Hail sisters of mercy
The sisters of mercy they come
Hail sisters of mercy

Sisters of mercy
Sisters of mercy
