作詞：Marvin Gaye 作曲：Marvin Gaye Woo ah, mercy mercy me Ah things ain't what they used to be no no~Where did all the blue skies go Poison is the wind that blows from the north and south and east Woo mercy, mercy me, Ah things ain't what they used to be Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas, fish full of mercury Ah oh mercy, mercy me Ah things ain't what they used to be, Radiation under ground and in the sky Animals and birds who live nearby are dying Oh mercy, mercy me Ah things ain't what they used to be What about this overcrowded land How much more abuse from man can she stand?
