"Jimmy Mack" lyrics
Laura Nyro & Labelle Lyrics
(originally by Martha Reeves & The Vandellas)
Jimmy
Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
My arms are missing you
My lips feel the same way too
I've tried so hard to be true
I promised I'd do
But this boy keeps comin' around
He's trying to wear my resistance down
Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy can you hear me, Jimmy?
Oh, Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
He calls me on the phone
About three times a day
Now my heart stops listenin' to
What he has to say (has to say)
But this loneliness I have to end
He's reachin' out to be his friend
Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy (can you hear me, Jimmy?)
Oh, Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
You're my guy
Ooh
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
I'm not getting (ooh, Jimmy Mack) any stronger (ooh, Jimmy Ma)
I can't hold out (ooh, Jimmy Ma) very much longer (ooh, Jimmy Ma)
Tryin' hard (ooh, Jimmy Ma) to be true (ooh, Jimmy Ma)
But Jimmy, he talks just as sweet as you
Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy, can you hear me, Jimmy?
Oh, Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
You're my guy
Ooh
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
I'm not getting any stronger
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
Jimmy Mack
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
I'm not getting any stronger
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
Jimmy Mack
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
I'm not getting any stronger
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
Jimmy Mack
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
I'm not getting any stronger
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
Jimmy Mack
Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
My arms are missing you
My lips feel the same way too
I've tried so hard to be true
I promised I'd do
But this boy keeps comin' around
He's trying to wear my resistance down
Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy can you hear me, Jimmy?
Oh, Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
He calls me on the phone
About three times a day
Now my heart stops listenin' to
What he has to say (has to say)
But this loneliness I have to end
He's reachin' out to be his friend
Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy (can you hear me, Jimmy?)
Oh, Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
You're my guy
Ooh
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
I'm not getting (ooh, Jimmy Mack) any stronger (ooh, Jimmy Ma)
I can't hold out (ooh, Jimmy Ma) very much longer (ooh, Jimmy Ma)
Tryin' hard (ooh, Jimmy Ma) to be true (ooh, Jimmy Ma)
But Jimmy, he talks just as sweet as you
Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy, can you hear me, Jimmy?
Oh, Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
You're my guy
Ooh
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
I'm not getting any stronger
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
Jimmy Mack
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
I'm not getting any stronger
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
Jimmy Mack
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
I'm not getting any stronger
Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back
Jimmy Mack
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
