THE KNEELING DRUNKARD'S PLEA

JOHNNY CASH

Key:

L ord have m ercy on me

Was the kneeling d runkard's p lea

And as he knelt there o n the ground

I k now that God in H eaven looked d own

I went down by an o ld country church

I saw the drunkard s tagger and l urch

And as he reached his m other's grave

I s aw that drunkard k neel and p ray

L ord have m ercy on me

Was the kneeling d runkard's p lea

And as he knelt there o n the ground

I k now that God in H eaven looked d own

Bring my darling b oy to me

Was his mothers d ying p lea

And as he staggered through the gate

Alas h e came just one d ay too l ate

Three years have passed s ince she went away

Her son is sleeping b eside her t oday

And I know that in heaven his mother will see

For G od has heard that d runkard's p lea

L ord have m ercy on me

Was the kneeling d runkard's p lea

And as he knelt there o n the ground

I k now that God in H eaven looked d own
