Screamin' at the newsman Tellin' him to take it back I'll sue him if he won't retract Cryin' to the hangman Beggin' him to render slack If I could I would go back
Will you extend me Will you extend me grace Just a little grace Will you extend me Will you extend me grace Just a little grace
Were you talkin' to the shrubbery Did you cut the roses down Someone oughta till that ground You thought I had a pure heart, well I thought you were an angel, girl Mercy is the silver pearl
Will you extend me Will you extend me grace Just a little grace...
My mother deems me ever dear I'm less a liar than sincere
When you cut me in the alley-way You don't have to turn that knife I'll suffer in the afterlife Prayin' to the Father Sorry, did I grieve the Ghost You're the one I love the most
Will you extend me Will you extend me grace Just a little grace...
