[Verse 1]
Never been easy to please, always been best on my own
I don't need her to be kind, I get my kicks all alone
I don't do walks on the beach, I don't get dressed up for shows
She got me good, I feel like a boy in love

[Verse 2]
My heart's been bruised like a peach, my soul's been set like a stone
But, now, when Sam Cooke sings, she got me whistling along
I didn't think I could care, but now I wait by the phone
She got me good, I feel like a boy in love

[Chorus]
Mercy please
Suddenly, I'm crawling to her on my knees
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, mеrcy please
Suddenly, I need hеr like a harmony
Because she talks and she walks like a woman
She makes me feel like a boy when I shouldn't
Oh, she got me good, I feel like a boy in love

[Post-Chorus]
(I love you)
(You don't know what you're missing)

[Verse 3]
Well now I'm eager to please when my lady is home
I'll give her XYZ so I can call her my own
I used to act like a man, but what did I ever know?
She got me good, I feel like a boy in love
Yeah
(One, two, three, four)
[Chorus]
Mercy please
Suddenly, I'm crawling to her on my knees
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, mercy please
Suddenly, I need her like a harmony
She is the subject of all my desire
Until I found her, I was merely a liar
Oh, she got me good, I feel like a boy in love

[Outro]
Oh, she got me good, I feel like a boy in love
