Lyrics
What if I, without a mother,
Starin' from my TV
What if there were my brown eyed baby
Hungry as she could be
What if there were my family
What if there was my world
Waitin' on water, waitin' on a vaccine
Waitin' on someone to bring me a bag o' beans
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, Have mercy on me
What if I was a mother
I was waitin' on me
Big success, so well dressed
On the other side of the sea
Livin' with my distractions
Life's been good to me
Maybe she's prayin'
Prayin' for a miracle
Maybe the answer is me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
I was born in Georgia
I could do as I pleased
I can get my hands on
Just about anything I might need
Who's that third world woman?
Maybe she could be
Could be a mother, could be a daughter
Could be a sister to me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
Lord, have mercy on me
