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 Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night in 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

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

All right!
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
All together!
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 Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV

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
