Love have mercy, yeah, on my soul
How many kisses, y'all, have I stole
From other girls they didn't belong to me
That's why the payback is just misery, yeah
Love have mercy, y'all, Lord
Love have mercy on me now
Love have mercy, y'all, on my heart
For this young girl
Is just tearing it apart
It's got me week
Oh don't ever let me go
'Cause I couldn't stand to reap
What I've sown now
Love have mercy, y'all, huh
Love have mercy on me, yeah
This feeling, Lord, is killing me
All the things I did wasn't right
And now I'm just sittin' like a duck
Sittin' here on that dynanmite, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ou ni, now, lord, somebody help me
Comin' loose y'all
Love have mercy, yeah, on this man
All the wrong I did now I understand
I broke a lot of hearts
Before I got to her
And now this suffering
Just like they were, tell me 'bout it
Love have mercy, yeah, ooh
Love have mercy on poor me
Love have mercy
Yeah, got to tell you about it
You got me sufferin'
Lord, just like they were
Don't make me suffer
Don't make me, love have mercy on me
Don't make me suffer, no no no no no no
Love have mercy, mercy, mercy
Love have mercy, mercy, mercy
Love have mercy on me
No don't do it to me
You got me doin' the things
I don't want to do, y'all, yeah
You got me sufferin'
Just like the girls were, now, now
Sorry 'bout that, sorry 'bout that
Sorry 'bout that, baby...

Otis Ray Redding Jr. (1941-1967) è stato un cantante statunitense di soul, considerato uno dei più influenti artisti del genere. Nato a Dawson, Georgia, Redding iniziò la sua carriera musicale suonando in chiese e locali notturni del sud degli Stati Uniti. Nel 1962 firmò con la Stax Records, dove ottenne il successo con brani come "Respect" (cover di Aretha Franklin) e "Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-Fine". Il suo stile vocale potente e emotivo, caratterizzato da un'ampia gamma e una straordinaria capacità di interpretazione, lo rese uno dei cantanti soul più amati. Tra i suoi brani più celebri figurano "I've Been Loving You Too Long", "Try a Little Tenderness" e il postumo successo mondiale "(Sittin' on) the Dock of the Bay". La sua tragica morte in un incidente aereo nel 1967, all'età di soli 26 anni, segnò la fine di una carriera promettente e lasciò un vuoto nel panorama musicale. Redding è ricordato come un artista geniale e innovativo che ha contribuito a definire lo stile del soul moderno.
