[00:16.12] I got turned around in some little town
[00:19.57] I'd never been to before
[00:23.57] Working my way through a middle-of-June
[00:26.49] Midnight thunderstorm
[00:30.20] There was something in the headlights
[00:33.66] It stopped me on a dime
[00:36.85] Well, she was scared to death, so I said
[00:40.30] "Climb in, " and then she climbed
[00:43.49] Oh, yeah
[00:50.93] Well, she was bruised and broke from head to toe
[00:53.85] With a tear in her blood-stained shirt
[00:57.30] She didn't tell the whole truth, but she didn't have to
[01:00.76] I knew what had happened to her
[01:04.21] I didn't load her down with questions
[01:07.40] That girl had been through enough
[01:10.84] I just threw it in drive, looked in those eyes
[01:14.57] And I asked her where he was
[01:18.02] I don't know if he's an angel
[01:21.47] 'Cause angels don't do what he did
[01:24.92] He was hellbent to find the man behind
[01:28.12] All the whiskey scars I hid
[01:31.56] I never thought my day of justice
[01:35.02] Would come from a judge under a seat
[01:38.46] But I knew right then I'd never get hit again
[01:41.92] When he said to me
[01:44.84] "Wait in the truck
[01:50.43] Just wait in the truck"
[01:52.82] Well, I knocked and knocked and no one came
[01:55.74] So I kicked in his double-wide door
[01:58.93] I let the hammer drop before he got
[02:02.65] To that 12 he was reaching for
[02:06.09] I didn't try to hide my pistol
[02:09.82] I didn't even try to run
[02:12.21] I just sat on the porch, smoking one of his cigarettes
[02:16.72] And waited for the cops to come
[02:19.91] I don't know if he's an angel
[02:23.37] 'Cause angels don't do what he did
[02:26.28] He was hellbent to find the man behind
[02:30.01] All the whiskey scars I hid
[02:33.47] I never thought my day of justice
[02:36.93] Would come from a judge under a seat
[02:40.39] But I knew right then I'd never get hit again
[02:43.83] When he said to me
[02:47.02] "Wait in the truck
[02:52.33] Just wait in the truck"
[02:54.72] Whoa (whoa)
[03:01.09] Have mercy on me, Lord
[03:04.28] Have mercy on me
[03:07.73] Have mercy on me (hey), Lord
[00:00.00] It's been 60 months and she still comes
[00:00.00] To see me from time to time
[00:00.00] It was worth the price, to see a brighter side
[00:00.00] Of the girl I picked up that night
[00:00.00] And I might be here forever
[00:00.00] It ain't paradise, that's true
[00:00.00] But it's whole hell of a lot better
[00:00.00] Than the place I sent him to, yeah
[00:00.00] Wait in the truck (have mercy on me)
[00:00.00] Just wait in the truck
[00:00.00] (Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me)
[00:00.00] Wait in the truck (Lord, have mercy)
[00:00.00] Just wait in the truck
[00:00.00] have mercy on me, Lord
[00:00.00] Have mercy on me
[00:00.00] (Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) have mercy on me, Lord
[00:00.00] Have mercy on me
[00:00.00] (Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) wait in the truck
[00:00.00] Just wait in the truck
[00:00.00] (Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) wait in the truck
[00:00.00] Just wait in the truck (please have me mercy)
