Martha Reeves – Jimmy Mack lyrics

Jimmy Mack, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack
When are you comin' back?
Oh, Jimmy Mack, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack
When are you comin' back?

My arms are missin' you
My lips feel the same way too
I've tried so hard to be true
Like I promised, I'd do

But this boy
Keeps a comin' 'round
He's tryin' to wear
My resistance down

Hey, Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack
When are you comin' back?
Jimmy Mack, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack
You better hurry back

He calls me on the phone
About three times a day
Now my heart doesn't listen' to
What he has to say

But this loneliness
I have within
Keeps reachin' out
To be his friend

Hey, Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack
When are you comin' back?
Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack
You better hurry back

Need your loving
(Jimmy Mack, won't you hurry back)
Need your loving
(Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back)

I want to say
I'm not gettin' any stronger
I can't hold out
Very much longer

Tryin' hard
To be true
But, Jimmy
He talks just as sweet as you

Hey, Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack
When are you comin' back?
Jimmy, can't you hear me, Jimmy? Oh, Jimmy Mack
You better hurry back

Need your loving
(Jimmy Mack, won't you hurry back)
Need your loving
(Hurry, hurry)

Hey, Jimmy Mack
(Hurry back)
When are you comin' back?
(Jimmy Mack)
Hey, Jimmy Mack
(Jimmy Mack)
You better hurry back
(Won't you hurry back)

[Incomprehensible]
(Hurry back)
[Incomprehensible]
(Jimmy Mack)
[Incomprehensible]
(Jimmy Mack)
[Incomprehensible]
(Won't you hurry back)
