Mercy Mercy Mercy

The Buckinghams

(Williams/Watson/Zawinul)





My baby she may not a-look

Like one of those bunnies out of a Playboy Club

But she got somethin' much greater than gold

Crazy 'bout that girl 'cause she got so much soul



I said she 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

There is no girl in the whole world

That can love me like you do



My baby when she walks by

All the fellows go 'mmmm', and I know why

It's simply 'cause that girl she looks so fine

And if she ever leaves me I would lose my mind

[repeat chorus]



Everybody in the neighborhood

Will testify that my girl she looks so good

She's so fine she'd give eyesight to the blind

And if she ever leaves me I would lose my mind

[repeat chorus]



Baby, yeah, you got that soulful feel, yeah, it's all right

Mercy, mercy, mercy
