[00:00.00]No Mercy In This Land (Live at Machine Shop) - Ben Harper/Charlie Musselwhite
[00:12.31]What would be the first thing
[00:14.54]You'd say to the lord
[00:17.30]And the last thing you would dream
[00:19.67]If you couldn't dream no more
[00:22.93]Won't you please help me to understand
[00:28.35]Is there no mercy in this land
[00:32.30]No mercy in this land
[00:38.17]Followed the river 'til the river ran dry
[00:43.84]Followed my lover 'til we said goodbye
[00:49.72]Followed you through soldiers who fire on command
[00:54.69]Is there no mercy in this land
[01:29.20]These days I speak in whispers
[01:31.76]Travel only to and from
[01:34.85]Come close you'll see the red
[01:37.38]Of a well bitten tongue
[01:40.29]The righteous and the wretched
[01:43.37]The holy and the damned
[01:46.30]Is there no mercy in this land
[01:50.49]No mercy in this land
[02:22.99]Father left us down here all alone
[02:28.43]My poor mother is under a stone
[02:34.54]With an aching heart and trembling hands
[02:39.96]Is there no mercy in this land
