Robert Palmer - Mercy Mercy Me/I Want You

12

Oh, mercy, mercy me

Oh, things ain't what they used to be

No, no, where did all the blue skies go?

Poison is the wind that blows

From the north, west, south and east

Oh, mercy, mercy me

Oh, things ain't what they used to be

No, no, oil wasted on the oceans

And our seas, fish full of mercury

Oh, mercy, mercy me

Oh, things ain't what they used to be

No, no, radiation underground and in the sky

Animals and birds who live near by are dying

Oh, mercy, mercy me

Oh, things ain't what they used to be

No, no, what about this over-crowded land?

How much more abuse from man can she stand?

I want you and I want you

The right way, I want you

But I want you to want me too

Want you to want me, baby

(Said I want you to love me)

Just like I want you

Ooh

Oh, I'll give you all the love

You want in return, sweet darlin'

Your happiness is all I crave

Ooh, it's too bad

It's just too sad

You don't want me now

But I'm gonna change your mind

Someway, somehow, baby

I want you, the right way

I want you

But I want you to want me too

I want you to want me, baby

Just like I want you

Ooh

A one way love is just fantasy,

Oh, sugar, to share is precious

Pure and fair, ooh

Don't play with something

You should cherish for your life, baby

Don't you want to care?

Lonely? I'm thereI want you!

Oh, mercy, mercy me

Oh, things ain't what they used to be

No, no, where did all the blue skies go?

Poison is the wind that blows

From the north, West, south and east

Oh, mercy, mercy me

Oh, things ain't what they used to be

No, no, what about this over-crowded land?

How much more abuse from man can she stand?

I want you
