"Mercy, Mercy, Mercy" lyrics |
 [Inspired by Marlene Shaw's 1967
vocal version of Cannonball Adderly's
big 1966 soul jazz instrumental hit]
My baby, she may not look
Like one of those bunnies out of the
Playboy book
Well, I'm sorry bout that, Mr. Williams
But she's got something,
Johnny, much greater than gold
Well, now what's that?
I'm crazy 'bout that girl,
She's got so much soul
She's got the kind of loving, kissin'
and a-huggin'
Sure is mellow, glad that I'm her fellow
And I know that she knocks me off
my feet
Have mercy on me!
'Cause she knocks me off my feet
Can you dig it?
There is no girl in the whole world
That can love me like you do - ow!
Tell 'em bout it, Watson
My baby now, when she walks by
All the fellows go '~~~', and I know
why
Have mercy, just look at her walk
It's simply because that girl, she walks
so fine
And if she ever leave me, I will lose
my mind
Because she's got the kind of lovin',
Kissin' and a-huggin'
Sure is mellow, glad that I'm her fellow
And I know that she knocks me off
my feet
Have mercy on me!
'Cause she knocks me off my feet
I'd better tell 'em one more thing
There is no girl in the whole world
That can love me like you do
Ow, tell 'em bout it, Mr. Williams
Now everybody in my neighborhood
An' that's what's grooving me
Will testify that my girl, she looks so
good
Well, let me tell you something else
right here
She looks so fine, she give eyesight
to the blind
Help 'em to make 'em see
And if she ever leave me, I will lose
my mind
Because she's got the kind of lovin',
Kissin' and a-huggin'
Sure is mellow, glad that I'm her fellow
And I know that she knocks me off
my feet
Have mercy on me!
'Cause she knocks me off my feet
Can you dig it?
There is no girl in the whole world
That can love me like you do
Mercy, mercy, mercy!
