Lyrics In the Name [Take 3] - Little Richard

In the Name [Take 3]

In the name she brought a little joy
She told me I was the baby boy
She said that she would never leave
Oh Lord, have mercy on me
In the name she called me on the telephone
She said, «Sweet baby, I’m coming home
I’ve been gone for such a mighty long time
And I just can’t get you out of my mind»
Oh, in the name she wrote me a letter sweet
Now she said, «Sweet baby, when we gonna meet?
I’ve been gone for such a mighty long time
And I just can’t get you out of my mind»
Oh, in the name
In the name she brought me a little joy
Now she told me I was the baby boy, yes she did, y’all
Now she said that she would never leave me, yes she did, honey
Oh Lord, have mercy on poor me, uh-huh
Now in the name she called me on the telephone
Now she said, «Sweet baby, I’m moving on
I’ve been gone for such a mighty long time
And I just can’t get you out of my mind»
In the name she wrote a letter sweet
Now she said, «Sweet baby, when we gonna meet?
I’ve been gone, a mighty long time
And I just can’t get you out of my mind»
