Had my money 

I tell you what I'd do 

I would go downtown 

Buy a Mercury or two 

Cause I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury 

Cruise up and down this road 

Up and down this road 

I'm goin' to buy me a Mercury 

And I'll cruise up and down this road 

Up and down this road 



You know that gal I love 

I stole her from a friend 

Fool got lucky stole her back again 

Because she knowed he had a Mercury 

Cruise up and down this road 

Up and down this road 

Well, she knowed he had a Mercury 

And she cruise up and down this road 



Hey now mama 

Where'd you stay last night 

Your hair's all down 

Your clothes don't fit you right 



Had my money 

I tell you what I'd do 

Go downtown and buy a Mercury or two 

Cause I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury 

And I'll cruise up and down this road 

Up and down this road 



I'm going to buy me a Mercury 

And I'll cruise up and down this road 

Up and down this road 



I'm going to buy me a Mercury 

Going to buy me a Mercury 

Going to buy me a Mercury 

Cruise, cruise up and down this road 

Up and down this road 



I'm going to buy me a Mercury 

Buy me a Mercury 

Going to buy me a Mercury 

Cruise, cruise up and down this road 

Up and down this road
