Tekst piosenki:
Mercy, mercy, mercy
Inflation's everywhere I see
Mercy, mercy, mercy
High prices should bring misery
A dollar is only worth the quarter
Things ain't the way they used to be
Such a high cost of living
a high cost of loving too
There's such a high cost of living
a high cost of loving too
Sweethearts so sure to stick together
it's less expensive if they do
it costs a dollar for your butter
four bits for your beans
Yes, I'm lucky to be eating soft pork and greens
Mercy, mercy, mercy
Oh, high can prices go
I'm gonna head for the poor house
and never show my face no more
I can't afford no nylon stockings
but I'm past the point where I care
Should…
Can't afford no nylon stockings
I'm past the point where I care
I'm ashamed to tell my sweetie
I'm too poor to buy a pair
The higher the prices the more we lose
The whole world is singing
Inflation blues
