Richard Marx - Have Mercy Lyrics
Ships are moving closer to the shoreline
And we're laughing in the face of loaded guns
I saw it on the news, we ain't got no worry
But it won't be in the paper when d day comes
For we know not what we do
Have mercy
We've forgotten to be afraid of you
Who can solve the problems of a nation
We cure the symptoms but we're killed by the disease
I feel I've more than made my contribution
But I hope there's room in heaven for my ego and me
Lord, have mercy
Have mercy
We've forgotten to be afraid of you
Have mercy
Lend us your hand
Lord, have mercy
Give us just another chance
Too many coaches on the sideline
Too many keepers in the zoo
How will we know we've passed the deadline
Give us the strength to stand or fall
God in heaven, have mercy on us all
The ships are even closer to the shoreline
Now we're playing in a madman's house of fun
I read it in the news we ain't got no worry
But it won't be in the paper when d day comes
Lord, have mercy

Richard Marx Have Mercy Comments
I just can't get over Richard having this random ass rock gospel song 😂. It's so good I'm just gonna let it slide
I like his music cause it's so diverse, he writes about everything.
Background vocals from a then-unknown Karyn White.
a song for our time?
1980s cycling!
Sick tones by one of the masters of guitar Michael Landau and a sweet solo . Analog recordings sound so much better then digital !
Love love LOVE this song!!!!!! And have done so for years.
Richard Marx is one of my all time favorite artists. Hands down.
That's exactly what he singing about
This song reminds me of the world in total destruction and asking God to have some mercy on us..
This song doesn't remind you of that, that's it's content verbatim 😂
The greatest thing about this song is that it's more socially relevant today, than it was back in '87! Talk about being ahead of your time.....
Solo is awesome.
Sure is!! Mike Landau.
What a great song by Richard Marx!
I love Richard Marx!
Uh! This is one of my favorite-songs from Richard Marx.
I'm 19 and Richard Marx is the best thing to have ever happened! He's so much better than the 'pop' crap that plays on the radio
unas de mis favoritas!!!!
underrated
