Roe, Tommy - Pearl Lyrics






Pearl,
One summer night with you,
Will make up for the past,
And the nights I never knew,
Love, warm love.

Just light the match,
That lights my fire.
Pearl, I'm burnin' with desire,
With Pearl, with my girl.

You comb my hair,
With your fingertips,
Kiss me with your pretty little lips,
Oh Pearl,
You're my girl.

Pearl,
Your smile brings on a glow,
And deep inside my heart,
I begin to know,
Love, warm love.

You strike the match,
That lights my fire.
Pearl, I'm burnin' with desire,
Oh Pearl, you're my girl.

You comb my hair,
With your fingertips,
Kiss me with your pretty little lips,
Oh Pearl,
You're my girl.

You strike the match,
That lights my fire.
Pearl, I'm burnin' with desire,
Oh Pearl, you're my girl.

You comb my hair,
With your fingertips,
Kiss me with your pretty little lips,
Oh Pearl,
You're my girl.

You strike the match,
That lights my fire.
Pearl, I'm burnin' with desire,
Oh Pearl, you're my girl.

You comb my hair,
With your fingertips,
Kiss me with your pretty little lips,
Oh Pearl,
You're my girl.

    The very epitome of the 60’s

    Miss this music so much.

    On this day in 1970 {April 11th} Tommy Roe performed "Pearl" on the Dick Clark ABC-TV Saturday afternoon program, 'American Bandstand'...
    Two months later on June 20th "Pearl" entered Billboard's Top 100 chart at position #91, six weeks later it would peak at #50 {for 2 weeks} and it stayed on the Top 100 for a total of nine weeks...
    And on the same 'Bandstand' show he also performed "Stir It Up and Serve It", the week before the song was at #61 on the Top 100 chart, that was also it's sixth and last week on the chart, and just like "Pearl, it peaked at #50, it spent a total of six weeks on the Top 100...
    Between 1962 and 1973 the Atlanta, Georgia native had twenty-two records on the Top 100 chart, six made the Top 10 with two reaching #1, "Sheila" for 2 weeks in 1962 and "Dizzy" for 4 weeks in 1969...

    One of his best i think!!! it wont make you DIZZY!!!!! this song was way ahead of its time!!!!!

    J.... H....

    I agree. Joseph! This had it all. A hook that would snag #1 on any chart. Tommy's vocal is perfection. The lyrics, the production, one completely thrilling song with #1 written all over it!

    One summer night with you
    Will make up for the past
    And the nights I never knew
    Love, warm love
    You strike the match
    That lights my fire
    Pearl, I'm burnin' with desire
    Oh Pearl, you're my girl
    You comb my hair
    With your fingertips
    Kiss me with your pretty little lips
    Oh Pearl
    You're my girl
    Pearl,
    Your smile brings on a glow
    And deep inside my heart
    I begin to know
    Love, warm love
    You strike the match
    That lights my fire

    With your fingertips
    Kiss me with your pretty little lips
    Oh Pearl
    You're my girl
    Mmm, mmm, mmm
    You strike the match
    That lights my fire
    Pearl, I'm burnin' with desire
    Oh Pearl, you're my girl
    You comb my hair
    With your fingertips
    Kiss me with your pretty little lips
    Oh Pearl
    You're my girl
    You strike the match
    That lights my fire

    Oh Pearl, you're my girl
    You comb my hair

    Kiss me with your pretty little lips
    Oh Pearl
