Kim Carnes - Merc Man lyrics

Larry got a job as a soda jerk

Worked five days bought a 55 merc

He raised it in the front

He lowered in the back

Now all the girls just call him Mercury Jack

He's the Merc man how do you do

Merc man that's who

Merc man he likes to cruise around

Merc man he's got his coolness down

Saturday night Larry's in the valley dancin'

He looks across the room

And spots some black stretch

Pants and she got

Legs tha go clear up to the rafters

A pair of nocturnal fantasy hips

He knew right away what

He was after

When she looked his way and moistened her lips

He said I'm the Merc man how do you do

Merc man that's who

Merc man he likes to cruise around

Merc man he's got his coolness down

Larry's pulse quickened

As she crossed the floor

He backed up slowly

And showed her to the door

She yes with her xray eyes

She walked up to him

And he just sighed

I'm the Merc man how do you do

Merc man that's who

Merc man he likes to cruise around

Merc man he's got his coolness down
