Never been easy to please, always been best on my own
I don′t need her to be kind, I get my kicks all alone
I don't do walks on the beach, I don′t get dressed up for shows
She got me good, I feel like a boy in love
My heart's been bruised like a peach, my soul's been set like a stone
But now when Sam Cooke sings, she got me whistlin′ along
I didn′t think I could care, but now I wait by the phone
She got me good, I feel like a boy in love
(Ha-ah, ha-ah)
(Ha-ah, ha-ah)
(Ha-ah, ha-ah)
(Ha-ah, ha-ah)
Mercy, please
Suddenly I'm crawlin′ to her on my knees (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, mercy, please
Suddenly I need her like a harmony (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Because she talks and she walks like a woman
She makes me feel like a boy, when I shouldn't
Oh, she got me good, I feel like a boy in love
(Oh, love)
(You don′t know what you're missing)
Well now, I′m eager to please, when my lady is home
I'll give her X, Y, Z, so I can call her my own
I used to act like a man, but what did I ever know?
She got me good, I feel like a boy in love
(Ha-ah, ha-ah)
(Ha-ah) yeah (ha-ah)
(Ha-ah, ha-ah)
(One, two, three, four)
Mercy, please
Suddenly I'm crawlin′ to her on my knees (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, mercy, please
Suddenly I need her like a harmony (whoa, whoa, whoa)
She is the subject of all my desire
Until I found her, I was merely a liar
Oh, she got me good, I feel like a boy in love
Oh, she got me good, I feel like a boy in love
