Jim-my Mack, Jim-my
Oh, - Jim-my Mack
When are you com-in' back?
Jim-my Mack, Jim-my
Oh, - Jim-my Mack
When are you com-in' back?
My - arms are mis-sin' you
My lips feel the same way too
- I've tried so hard to be true
- Like - I prom-ised I'd do
But this boy keep's com-in' a-round
He's try-in' to wear
my re-sist-ance down
Hey Jim-my Mack, Jim-my
Oh, Jim-my Mack
When are you com-in' back?
Jim-my Mack, Jim-my
Oh, Jim--my Mack
When are you com-in' back?
He - calls me on the phone
A-bout three - times - a day
- No, my heart's not lis-ten-in' to
- What he - has to say
- But this lone-li-ness - I - have with-in
Keeps rea-chin'
out to be his friend
Oh, Jim-my Mack, Jim-my
Oh, Jim-my Mack
When are you com-in' back?
Jim-my, - - Jim-my
Oh, - Jim-my Mack
When are you com--in' back?
I need your lov-in'
Now, lis-ten, boy
I'm not get-tin' an-y strong-er
I can't hold back for ver-y much long-er
Try--in' hard to be true
But, Jim-my, he talks
just as sweet - as you
Oh, Jim-my Mack, Jim-my
Oh, Jim-my Mack
When are you com-in' back?
Jim-my, - - Jim-my
Oh, Jim--my Mack
When are you com--in' back?
I need your lov-in'
Need your lov-in'
- - Ooh, - ooh, Jim-my Mack
When are you com-in' back?
- Oh Jim-my Mack
When are you com-in' back?
