      @@gyulaigyula5254 - You can be humble and still be confident and think very highly of yourself in order to reach your goals. She is humble through her charitable acts and philanthropy and the way she treats people. She gave herself the moniker "Queen Latifah" (her real name is Dana Owens) when she was just a teenager starting out as rapper, which was a male dominated field at that time. I've never heard anybody say that she acts like she's better than anyone else nor that she treats her staff poorly. She always acknowledges her upbringing in Newark, NJ. She has even mentored young girls from her old community. Please educate yourself before posting such ignorance.

    Have mercy on me!
    It seems, that life has played a game on me.
    I'm lost, in a sea of misery.
    My love, is turning his back on me.
    Heartache, why won't you, let me be.
    Now baby, have some mercy please.
    Don't make me, beg on bended knees.
    Oh please.
    Mercy mercy mercy please...Have mercy on me!
    Mercy mercy mercy please.
    How can I face life?
    Without you?
    What would I do?
    If we, were through?
    Don't you know daddy, I'll wait for you every single night?
    Hoping you return, to make things right.
    You don't show, and I'm sitting here all alone. (all alone now)
    Just afraid you're gonna call me on the fone.
    Oh baby, have some mercy please.
    Don't make me, beg on bended knees.
    Oh please.
    Mercy mercy mercy (mercy, mercy on me) Have mercy on me!
    Mercy mercy mercy me.
    You know I love you.
    And I'm begging you.
    Give me one chance.
    One chance.
    One more.
    I know life's got its many a twists.
    But loving you daddy, is the one that I cannot resist.
    Your lovin' understandin', you've been givin givin givin givin me.
    Without you, I just can't go on livin.
    Oh baby, have some mercy please.
    Don't make me beg on bended knees.
    I said.
    Mercy mercy mercy (oh, mercy on me) Have mercy on me!
    Mercy mercy mercy please...Have mercy on me!
    Mercy mercy mercy...Have mercy on me!
    Mercy mercy mercy...Oooooo
    Have a little bit of mercy for your mama.
    I ain't ask for too much, just a little bit from you you you you you....

    Love the bass player! Adds a whole new layer of funk to the tune. And the lyrics have more depth than the Buckingham's silliness. I hope Zawinul and Cannonball would approve of the feel. Nothing laid back about this monstrous groove. Real nice.
