Larry got a job as a soda jerk
|
Worked five days bought a 55 merc
|
He raised it in the front
|
He lowered in the back
|
Now all the girls just call him Mercury Jack
|
|
He's the Merc man how do you do
|
Merc man that's who
|
Merc man he likes to cruise around
|
Merc man he's got his coolness down
|
|
Saturday night Larry's in the valley dancin'
|
He looks across the room
|
And spots some black stretch
|
Pants and she got
|
Legs tha go clear up to the rafters
|
A pair of nocturnal fantasy hips
|
He knew right away what
|
He was after
|
When she looked his way and moistened her lips
|
|
He said I'm the Merc man how do you do
|
Merc man that's who
|
Merc man he likes to cruise around
|
Merc man he's got his coolness down
|
|
Larry's pulse quickened
|
As she crossed the floor
|
He backed up slowly
|
And showed her to the door
|
She yes with her xray eyes
|
|
She walked up to him
|
And he just sighed
|
I'm the Merc man how do you do
|
Merc man that's who
|
Merc man he likes to cruise around
|
Merc man he's got his coolness down
|
