And now the mellow sounds of Jimmy Early
I meant you no harm
I never meant to make you cry
You were the only one I've ever loved in my life
And though it's hard for me to show it
I have to let you know it
Cause darling I love you more each day
But the words got in my way
Oh I mean you no harm
And I would die
If you ever said goodbye
I love you, I love you
I meant you no harm
I never meant to make you cry
You are the only one I'll ever love in my life
Hold it, Hold it, Hold it
I can't do it, I can't sing no more sad songs
One two three hit me
Bop be bop, bop be bop be dee bop
Bop be bop, bop yeah
Bass man, huh, come on up
One two three hit me
Uh, sound good, yeah
Saxophone on the floor, one two three, hit it
Yeah, ow, uh, come on
Horns hit it, uh, yeah
Hey girl lets rock with Jimmy Early
Got a home in the hills, Mercedes Benz
Hot swimming pool, got lots of friends
Got Clothes by the acre, credit to spare
I could wake up tomorrow and find
nobody there
But Jimmy want more, jimmy want more
Jimmy want, jimmy want, jimmy want more
Jimmy want a rib, jimmy want a steak
Jimmy want a piece of your chocolate cake
And more than all that Jimmy want a raise, Cause
Jimmy got soul, jimmy got soul, jimmy got
Jimmy got, Jimmy got soul
Sooner or later
The time comes around
For a man to be a man and take back his sound
I gotta do something to shake things up
I like Johnny Mathis but I can't do that stuff
Cause jimmy got soul, jimmy got soul, jimmy got S-O-U-L
I can't do rock
I can't do roll, what I can do baby is show my soul
Cause jimmy got, jimmy got, jimmy got SOUL
