Pinch Me (Baby, Convince Me) 
By: Ohio Express
(Kasenetz/Katz/Woods)
1969

If you are mine
Come on girl
And give me the sign
I need affection
Come on baby
Supply the direction
Come on

Chorus:

Pinch me, baby, pinch me
Come on and convince me
Pinch me, baby, pinch me
Come on and convince me

Don't tell me stop

When I'm on my way to the top
I wanna groove
So come on baby
And make your move
Come on

(Chorus)

Do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do

If you survive
We got to do it
One more time
It's nothin' new
You pinch me
And I'll pinch you
Come on now

Pinch me, baby, pinch me
Come on and convince me
Alright
Pinch me, baby, pinch me
Come on and convince me
Pinch me, baby, pinch me
Do do do do

Now do it girl

Come on and convince me
Do do do do
Pinch me, baby, pinch me
Come on and convince me . . .  

ANDY RATING:

Hard to follow Mercy & Roll It Up and Pinch Me certainly suffers by comparison. The uninspired break, lackluster lyrics, and pinch-less production values make us miss the presence of Joey Levine.

 

NOTES:

. . . pretty sure Kasenetz & Katz had little to do with the writing of this song . . .
