Lyrics Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin

Mercedes Benz

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?

My friends all drive Porsches, and I must make amends.

Worked hard all my lifetime, no help for my friends,

So oh! Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a color TV?

"Dialing for dollars" is trying to find me,

I wait for delivery each day until three,

So oh Lord, won't you buy me a color TV?

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a night on the town?

I'm counting on you, lord, please don't let me down.

Prove that you love me and buy the next round,

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a night on the town?

Everybody!

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?

My friends all drive Porsches, and I must make amends.

Worked hard all my lifetime, no help for my friends,

So oh! Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?
