Mercury
R.F. Maston Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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 it from a friend
He got lucky stole her back again
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, came 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,
well 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
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury
and cruise it up and down the road
