Lyrics: Oh-oh, mercy, mercy me Oh, things ain't what they used to be, no no Where did all the blue skies go? Poison is the wind that blows from the north and south and east Oh, mercy, mercy me Oh, things ain't what they used to be, no no Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas Fish full of mercury Oh-oh, mercy, mercy me Oh, things ain't what they used to be, no no Radiation under ground and in the sky Animals and birds who live nearby are dying Oh, mercy, mercy me Oh, things ain't what they used to be What about this overcrowded land How much more abuse from man can she stand? Oh, na, na, na Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Hey, ooh, woo

The only time the group scored two consecutive top ten hits on Billboard's chart was in 1969.w/"Time is Tight" as the follow up. This mono version SNAPS! Mixes and mastered so beautifully 🔥!

This was so 😔 😢.

One question... Great rendition...but was the majestic interlude in the break really necessary? Oh well...people bought it!

The only #1 song on the Warner Brothers/7 Arts label. By the summer of 1970 they went back to just Warner Brothers.

yeah, this isn't the TV show version. So forget it. Signed, '60s TV kid from the 'burbs...😅

never knew his name until now!?!

(hard to believe this was 1966... so ready to 'blow')!

For another 5 years no single did a reversal to #1 after falling starting with this song in.May of 1967 until July, 1972.

too busy on tambourine 😅

Mike Douglas?! (And Roger Alias started his propaganda career as his producer!)😮

great novelty song.

1981.

the same people who wrote that ABC network tune in the early 70's

A certifiable classic-RIP Joe Cocker.

Ole Stevie Wonder sho nuff did sing his song, up in here! PWG

One of the standout rekkits of the 60s. So sweet! PWG

Always did like dis rekkit! PWG

This song always makes me remember my late big brother. PWG

I always wonder if the Columbia dee-jay vinyl pressing sounds better than the commercial release on polystyrene. "Jesus." I saw "The Graduate" in late '67 when I was 13. I was embarrassed by a few scenes to say the least.

Jim "Dandy" Mangrum is one of the best Band Members in Music History.

Always thought it was a groovy rekkit! PWG

I would tease my daughter by singing during the intro “cinnamon bun”. PWG

Do you believe in magic?

I like how the droning sound of the pipes are in the key of B but the root note is D

I heard this when I was in first grade. I immediately thought it was Paul McCartney.

I do not ever recall hearing this track until many years after it came out and when I heard it the first several times I thought it came out in the late 1950s-pre British Invasion 1960s time frame. Don't know why.

50 YEARS AGO TODAY..MAY 1974.

Lyrics: I was home In Macon, Georgia They kept my daddy In the Macon jail They said, son If you keep your hands clean, aha You won't here those bloodhounds on your trail I fell in With bad companions I robbed the mail Up in Tennessee And I got caught Way up in Nashville, aha, now Well , they locked me up and they Threw away the key I washed my hands In muddy water I washed my hands But they didn't come clean I tried to do Like may daddy told me now I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream I asked the jailer I said, when's my time up He said, son You know we won't forget And if you try Just to keep your hands clean, aha Why we may just make a good man of you yet But I couldn't wait To get my time in I broke out, woah Of the Nashville jail I just crossed Atlanta, Georgia, oh oh now And I can hear those bloodhounds on my trail I washed my hands In muddy water I washed my hands But they didn't come clean I tried to do Like may daddy told me now But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream I washed my hands In muddy water I washed my hands But they didn't come clean I tried to do Like may daddy told me now But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream Oh, Lord, I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream I guess I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream

Lyrics: She's got everything she needs She's an artist she don't look back She's got everything she needs She's an artist she don't look back She can take the dark out of the nighttime Paint the daytime black You may start out standing Probably steal her anything she sees You can start out standing Probably steal her anything she sees But you'll wind up peaking through a keyhole On your knees She never stumbles Got no place to fall She never stumbles Got no place to fall She's nobody's child The law can't touch her at all Bow down to her on Sunday Salute her when her birthday comes Bow down to her on Sunday Salute her when her birthday comes For Halloween buy her a trumpet For Christmas give her a drum

As live album track works greatly👍

i have this but mine is weird

Same genre as Johnny Rivers etc.

this is a sacrilege by Mr. Martin- what could the rationale have been?

yes, it would appear that this is, indeed, the 1st bone fide garage rock acid tune!

the 'easy listening' crowd...

Gag to the max. The show was ok and the pop hits ok, but they were not ok.😅

even the deliberate 'limp' intro is great! Jazzy almost do-woppy!😊

21st century means technical trade school at city college! Get on it! $😊.

Mitch Miller. The goatee😅

❤ wow takes me back to good days here in Uk. Thank you ❤

Happy 90th Birthday to cast member Shirley Jones.1934-2024.

This groovy pop song was produced by UK producer Tony Hatch who btw produced many of Petula Clarks BIGGEST hits❤❤❤

One of the best soul songs ever...his great voice, that Hammond B-3, those soaring background vocals...triple threat...

Nice Song, could have been better without Levi Stubb's constant rambling, talking and preaching. Obviously, he's not a romantic singer, at least not in that song.

Hal Blaine played "ashtray"?!

... it isn't the 'God' part, it has a 'draggy' element to its middle part.

i don't know why, when i saw this in the 1966 playlist, i think if it as a later '60s tune, like '68 or '69..... ah the 'musical memory'.

Those college days.. it does bring sweet memories.. down memory lane.
