rate me

<br>

Announcer: And now the mellow sounds of jimmy early<br>

Jimmy Early: I meant you no harm<br>

I never meant to make you cry<br>

You were the only one I’ve ever loved in my life<br>

And though its hard for me to show it<br>

I have to let you know it<br>

Cuz darling I love you more each day<br>

But the words got in my way<br>

Oh I meant you no harm<br>

And I would die<br>

If you ever said goodbye<br>

I love you, I love you<br>

I meant you no harm<br>

I never never meant to make you cry<br>

You are the only one I’ll ever love in my life<br>

<br>

Hold it, hold it, hold it<br>

I cant do it, I cant sing no more sad songs<br>

One two three hit me<br>

Bop be bop, bop be bop be deed bop<br>

Bop be bop, bop yeah<br>

Bass man, huh, come on up<br>

One two three hit me<br>

Uh, sound good, yeah<br>

Saxophone on the floor, one two three, hit it<br>

Yeah, ow, uh, come on<br>

Horns hit it, uh, yeah<br>

Hey girl lets rock with jimmy early<br>

Got a home in the hills, Mercedes benz, hot swimming pool, got lots of friends<br>

Got Clothes by the acre, credit to spare, I could wake up tomorrow and find nobody there<br>

But Jimmy want more, jimmy want more, jimmy want, jimmy want, jimmy want more<br>

Jimmy want a rib, jimmy want a steak, jimmy want a piece of your chocolate cake<br>

And more than all that Jimmy want a raise, cuz <br>

Jimmy got soul, Jimmy got soul, Jimmy got, Jimmy got, Jimmy got soul<br>

Sooner or later<br>

The time comes around<br>

For a man to be a man to take back his sound<br>

I gotta do something to shake things up<br>

I like Johnny Mathis but I cant do that stuff<br>

Cuz Jimmy got soul, Jimmy got soul, Jimmy got S-O-U-L soul<br>

I cant do rock<br>

I cant do roll, what I can do baby is show my soul, <br>

Cuz Jimmy got, jimmy got, jimmy got SOUL<br>

<br>
