Jimmy Mack Lyrics

Martha & The Vandellas

Jimmy Mack, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack
when are you comin' back?
Jimmy Mack, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack
when are you comin' back?

My arms are missin' you
my lips feel the same way too
I've tried so hard to be true
like I promised I'd do
But this boy keeps a comin' 'round
he's tryin' to wear my resistance down

Hey Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack
when are you comin' back?
Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack
you better hurry back

He calls me on the phone
about three times a day
No, my heart's not listenin' to
what he has to say
But this lonelieness I have within
keeps reachin' out to be his friend

Hey Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack
When are you comin' back?
Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack
You better hurry back
Need your lovin'
(Jimmy Mack, won't you hurry back)
Need your lovin'
(Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back)

I wanna say
I'm not gettin' any stronger
I can't hold out very much longer
Tryin' hard to be true
but, Jimmy, he talks just as sweet as you

Hey Jimmy, Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack
when are you comin' back?
Jimmy, (can't you hear me?) Jimmy
Oh, Jimmy Mack
you better hurry back
Need your lovin'
(Hurry back, Jimmy Mack)
Need your lovin'
(Hurry, hurry, hey Jimmy Mack)

You better hurry back
Hey Jimmy Mack
when are you coming back?
I'm not gettin' any stronger (ooh!)
can't hold back very much longer (ooh!)
Jimmy Mack, when are you comin' back?
Need your lovin' (oh, Jimmy Mack)
Need your lovin' (oh, Jimmy Mack)
