Mercedes Benz

Oh Lord, won't you buy me
a Mercedes Benz
My friends all drive Porsches
I must make amends
Worked hard all my lifetime
no help from my friends
So 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
I must make amends
I Worked all my lifetime
no help from my friends
So Lord, won't you buy me
a Mercedes Benz
