Lyrics:

Merci
From Queens, New York
Les Shangri-Las

Here comes my girl
Walkin' down the street
See how she walks
She gotta dancin' beat
Big wavy hair
Just a little too long
And all day long
She's singin' her song
When I see her in the street
My heart takes a leap and it's skippin' a beat
I'm gonna walk right up to her
And give her a great big kiss
Wham!
Tell her that I love her
Tell her that I care
Tell her I that I'll always be there
Tell her I that I'll always be there

(Hey, hey what color's her eyes?)
I dunno, she always wearin' shades
(Hey, is she tall?)
Well, I gotta look up
(Well, they tell me she's bad)
She's good bad, but she's not evil
(Tell me more, I tell you more)
(Tell me more, I tell you more)
I bought myself a sweater
Thought it match her eyes
With dirty fingernails
Oh boy, what a prize
Tight khaki pants
High button shoes
She's always walkin'
Like she got the blues (or born to lose)
When I see her in the street
My heart take a leap and it's skippin' a beat
I'm gonna walk right up to her
And give her a great big kiss
Whoa!
Tell her that I love her
Tell her that I care
Tell her I that I'll always be there
Tell her I that I'll always be there
Tell her I that I'll always be there
Oh, what the hell

(Is she a good dancer?)
Well, what do ya mean, is she a good dancer?
(Hey, how does she dance?)
Close, very, very close
(Tell me more, I you tell more)
(Tell me more, I tell you more)
Bought myself a sweater
Thought it match her eyes
Her dirty fingernails
Oh boy, what a prize
Tight khaki pants
High button shoes
She's always lookin
Like she's born to lose
When I see her in the street
My heart takes a leap and skippin' a beat
I'm gonna walk right up to her
And give her a great big kiss
Whoa!
Tell her that I love her
Tell her that I care
Tell her I that I'll always be there
Tell her I that I'll always be there
Tell her I that I'll always be there
Tell her I that I'll always be there
Tell her I that I'll always be there
You know you make me wanna shout
Come on now
Shout, come on now
Shout, come on now
Shout, come on now
Shout, come on now
Shout, come on now
Shout, come on now
Shout, come on now
Shout, come on now
Shout, come on now

I gotta always be there, I gotta always be there

Always and forever
