And now the mellow sounds of Jimmy Early

I meant you no harmI never meant to make you cry

You were the only one I′ve ever loved in my life

And though its hard for me to show it

I've got to let you know it

′Cause darling I love you more each day

But the words got in my way

Oh I meant you no harm

And I would die

If you ever said goodbye

I love you, I love you

But I meant you no harm

I never never meant to make you cry

You are the only one I'll ever love in my life

Hold it, hold it, hold it

I cant do it no more, I cant sing no more sad songs

One two three hit me

Bop be bop, bop be bop be deed bop

Bop be bop, bop yeah

Bass man, huh, come on up

One two three hit me

Uh, sound good, yeah

Saxophone on the floor, one two three, hit it

Yeah, ow, uh, come on

Horns hit it, uh, yeah

Hey girl lets rock with Jimmy Early

Got a home in the hills, Mercedes Benz

Hot swimming pool, got lots of friends

Got clothes by the acre, credit to spare

I could wake up tomorrow and find nobody there

But Jimmy want more, Jimmy want more

Jimmy want, Jimmy want, Jimmy want more

Listen

Jimmy want a rib, Jimmy want a steak

Jimmy want a piece of your chocolate cake

Above all of that Jimmy wants some break

'Cause Jimmy got soul, Jimmy got soul

Jimmy got, Jimmy got, Jimmy got soul

Sooner or later the time comes around

For a man to be a man and take back his sound

I got to do something to shake things up

I like Johnny Mathis, but I can′t do that stuff

Jimmy got soul, Jimmy got soul, Jimmy got S-O-U-L, soul

I can′t do rock, I can't do roll

What I can do, baby, is show my soul

′Cause Jimmy got soul, Jimmy got soul

Jimmy got, Jimmy got, Jimmy got soul
