Cherry, Cherry Lyrics
Baby loves me
Yes, yes she does
Ah, the girl's outta sight, yeah
Says she loves me
Yes, yes she does
Gonna show me tonight, yeah
She got the way to move me, Cherry
She got the way to groove me
She got the way to move me
She got the way to groove me
Tell your mamma, girl, I can't stay long
We got things we gotta catch up on
Mmmm, you know
You know what I'm sayin'
Can't stand still while the music is playin'
Y'ain't got no right
No, no you don't
Ah, to be so exciting
Won't need bright lights
No, no we won't
Gonna make our own lighting
She got the way to move me, Cherry
She got the way to groove me
She got the way to move me
She got the way to groove me
No, we won't tell a soul where we gone to
Girl, we do whatever we want to
Ah, I love the way that you do me
Cherry, babe, you really get to me
She got the way to move me, Cherry
She got the way to groove me
She got the way to move me
She got the way to groove me
Yes, yes she does
Ah, the girl's outta sight, yeah
Says she loves me
Yes, yes she does
Gonna show me tonight, yeah
She got the way to move me, Cherry
She got the way to groove me
She got the way to move me
She got the way to groove me
We got things we gotta catch up on
Mmmm, you know
You know what I'm sayin'
Can't stand still while the music is playin'
No, no you don't
Ah, to be so exciting
Won't need bright lights
No, no we won't
Gonna make our own lighting
She got the way to groove me
She got the way to move me
She got the way to groove me
Girl, we do whatever we want to
Ah, I love the way that you do me
Cherry, babe, you really get to me
She got the way to groove me
She got the way to move me
She got the way to groove me

There is a magnificent three-chord EAD guitar riff through-out Cherry Cherry. Diamond is NOT a great guitarist (but he is of course a great song-writer) and he must have known he was on to something when he noodled around with this one. Legend has it that his producers at the time, Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich, heard Neil noodling on his guitar with this one whilst they were recording other early songs for Diamond in the studio in his Bang days and urged him to finish it. It is pity that Diamond's musical direction veered so much off course for most of the late 70s, 80s and 90's but Rick Rubin has thankfully steered Diamond back on track and got him playing guitar again in the studio and has pared down his sound to just guitars, piano and hand claps etc, a la Cherry Cherry. Take a listen to Diamond's 2005 cut of Delirious Love on his 12 songs album. It is almost Cherry Cherry mark 2.
its awesome
Yes. Yes it is.
acoustic guitar, hand claps, piano, and strings. what's not to like?
I like his early tunes best; this one, Solitary Man, I'm A Believer - great singer, great performer, and as shilo mentioned, terrific songwriter - never saw him live, though
