lyrics

When did mercy come undone
Good intentions right now ain’t good enough
Pick up the shield pick up the sword
Carry their burden as if it was your own

Rio Grande River overflows with tears
Journeys of hope ending in a cage down here
Broken dreams in the Promised Land
Families lookin’ for a second chance

When did mercy come undone
Good intentions right now ain’t good enough
Pick up the hammer pick up the spike
Tear down the walls and shatter the locks

Unseen people strugglin’ everyday
Tryin’ to hold on and somehow find their way
Do they see us as the invisible ones
Hidin’ in our cars and shoutin’ on the television

When did mercy come undone
Good intentions right now ain’t good enough
Pick up the hammer pick up the spike
Tear down the walls and shatter the locks

People denied people alone
Walk in their shoes in your heart and soul
Say a prayer say hello
Stop and listen to their stories untold

about

John Bunzow Portland, Oregon

He’s as likely to draw on his love of country legend Merle Haggard or barroom bard Tom Waits, as he is the smooth R&B and soul of Marvin Gaye, the folk wisdom of Bob Dylan, or the blues of Albert King.

He has established himself as an original artist of heartfelt depth, substance and style.
 
Bunzow commutes regularly to Nashville from his home base in Portland.
