Ohio Express - Mercy 1969
I love you mercy, mercy.
Oh, you know, you're such a beautiful thing.
You're laying kisses on me girl
All you know all the pleasure it brings,
Ah, ah, ah, ah.
You're spending all my money,
And you're making me crawl up the wall.
Oh Mercy, mercy
You're doing me without any mercy at all,
And I'm calling you:
Have mercy, mercy have mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy have mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me.
A man's supposed to be stronger
And is used to getting his way, ah,
But mercy girl you got my number,
And I'll do any thing that you say.
But stop playing with me.
Have mercy, mercy have mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy have mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me.
(Instrumental)
Have mercy, mercy have mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy have mercy on me.
Have mercy, mercy, mercy on me.
@dwntwnmotorhead I'll take the catchy, melodic bubblegum pop over Glee any day :) Yes, back in the day, you actually had to have musical composition talent and performance talent to create these sugary confections, as prefabricated as they may have seemed to some people. Today, what's used and needed is the bare minimum to scrape by, giving us Auto-Tuned melodies that are flat and uninspired. Back then, of course image mattered; today, image is everything.

@lovetheoldies I heard he never went on tour or did live tv apperances. He was just a studio recording guy. He did join the Express 3-4 years ago in Tenessee for a reunion concert, wish I could have been there!

the first song with subliminal messages. If played backwards it says "I will have no mercy on you and i will gut you like a pig" wow, heavy stuff

At one time I thought this was the best song ever that was in 1969 and I had the single 45 I believe was from budah records

i wonder if these guys thew that what they were singing would be considered "bubblegum", not mocking the song, the song is great, grew up on it, :)

Great single, and their Mercy album on the Buddah label is just as good.
