英國紅髮美女歌姬［席娜．伊斯頓］──流行靈魂佳作──［Jimmy Mack／吉米麥克］

Jimmy Mack Jimmy,

Oh Jimmy Mack when are you comin back.

Jimmy Mack Jimmy,

Oh Jimmy Mack when are you comin back.

My arms are missing you,

My lips feel the same way too.

I tried so hard to be true, like I promised to do.

But this boy keeps comin around,

tryin to wear my resistance down.

Hey Jimmy, Jimmy,

Oh Jimmy Mack, when are you comin back.

Jimmy, Jimmy, Oh Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back.

He calls me on the phone about three times a day.

Now my hearts just listening to, what he has to say

But this loneliness I have within,

Keeps reaching out to be his friend

Hey Jimmy, Jimmy,

Oh Jimmy Mack, when are you comin back.

Jimmy, Jimmy, Oh Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back.

Need your loving, need your loving.

I wanna say Im not getting any stronger,

I cant hold out very much longer

Trying hard, to be true,

But, Jimmy he talks just as sweet as you.

Hey Jimmy, Jimmy,

Oh Jimmy Mack, when are you comin back.

Jimmy, Jimmy, Oh Jimmy Mack, you better hurry back.

１９８５年秋天　２６歲的英國蘇格蘭紅髮歌手席娜伊斯頓（Sheena Easton）發行第八張專輯［Do You］

邀來當紅的黑人團體Chic成員Nile Rodgers製作 ,走較為復古的舞曲路線

專輯評價頗佳　在美國能拿到金唱片

故鄉英國卻沒入榜

首支主打［Do It For Love／為愛而做］

只登上美國單曲榜＃２９ 加拿大＃６４

１９８６年初　席娜推出第二主打［Jimmy Mack／吉米麥克］

這是１９６７年美國黑人女子團體Martha and the Vandellas在Billboard單曲榜拿到＃１０的流行靈魂曲

由Holland–Dozier–Holland譜寫

新版也維持懷舊的流行靈魂味, 席娜的R&B唱腔也迥異早期

MV則走歌舞片路線

［Jimmy Mack］反應依舊不佳, 只登上美國單曲榜＃６５　舞曲榜＃３０　也沒打入英國榜

讓這首歌成為伊斯頓較少為人知道的佳作之一
