Lyrics

Mercury Blues

If I had money, I tell you what I'd do

I'd go downtown and buy a Mercury or two

I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury

I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury

I'm gonna buy me a Mercury and cruise it up and down the road

The girl I love, I stole her from a friend

He got lucky, stole her back again

'Cause she knew he had a Mercury

She knew he had a Mercury

I'm gonna buy me a Mercury and cruise it up and down the road

Hey now mama, you look so fine

Ridin' 'round in your Mercury 49

I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury

I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury

I'm gonna buy me a Mercury and cruise it up and down the road

My baby went out, she didn't stay long

She bought herself a Mercury, come a-cruisin' home

I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury

I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury

I'm gonna buy me a Mercury and cruise it up and down the road

If I had money, I tell you what I'd do

I'd go downtown and buy a Mercury or two

I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury

I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury

I'm gonna buy me a Mercury and cruise it up and down the road

I'm gonna buy me a Mercury and cruise it up and down the road
