  • Well if I had money
    Tell you what I'd do
    I'd go downtown and buy a mercury or two
    Crazy 'bout a mercury
    Lord I'm crazy bout a mercury
    I'm gonna buy me a mercury
    And cruise it up and down the road

    Well the girl I love
    I stole her from a friend
    He got lucky, stole her back again
    She heard he had a mercury
    Lord she's crazy 'bout a mercury
    I'm gonna buy me a mercury
    And cruise it up and down the road

    Well hey now mama
    You look so fine
    Ridin' round in your mercury 49
    Crazy 'bout a mercury
    Lord I'm crazy 'bout a mercury
    I'm gonna buy me a mercury
    And cruise it up and down the road

    Well my baby went out
    She didn't stay long
    Bought herself a mercury, come a cruisin' home
    She's crazy 'bout a mercury
    Yeah she's crazy 'bout a mercury
    I'm gonna buy me a mercury
    And cruise it up and down the road

    Oh, cruise now

    Well if I had money
    I tell you what I'd do
    I'd go downtown and buy me a mercury or two
    Crazy 'bout a mercury
    Lord 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
    Yeah, I'm gonna buy me a mercury
    And cruise it up and down the road

    Oh, let's go! Writer/s: K.C. Douglas, Robert L. Geddins
