I've got a built-in forgetter
I see her face in the morning sun
And she could have hold of me if I let her
With me you've got to be fun, fun, fun
Do you know that I'm getting better?
I quit messing a round, round, round
She'd sing this song if I let her
I keep hearing the sound sound sound of love
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
And when it was sour tasting
You took a little sugar love sugar love
Cause you knew that time was a-wasting
And you've got to get above, get above
I've got a built-in forgetter
A good man keeps switching around
And I can never reset her
It's just the way that it is for me now
Oh sister mercy, you take me higher
You keep me smiling
You keep me moving on
Out in the big world when I get lonely
I just think about my baby when she cut me loose
Tell me all the things that she'd like to do to me
Yeah yeah yeah!
She said: What am I to ya?
I said you're nothing more than a crutch
But we ain't even hobbelin'
I said: I've given you too much
Got a built-in forgetter
I see your face in the morning sun
She could have all of me if I'd let her
With me apart, with unto the
Oh sister mercy, you take me higher
You keep me smiling
You keep me moving on
Out in the big world when I get lonely
I just think about my baby when she cut me loose
Tell me all the things that she'd like to do to me, yes
I remember times when I didn't want you
Better without you baby tell you the truth
All I've got from you's a sour taste on my tongue
And she said: Take a little sugar love
Oh sister mercy, you take me higher
You keep me smiling, you keep me moving on
Out in the big world when I get lonely
Well I just think about my baby, just think about my baby
God yeah yes
Oh sister mercy, you take me higher
I just think about my baby when she cut it loose
Tell me all the things that she'd like to do to me, yes
Te-te-te-te-te
Tell me all the things now
