Don’t ask me to move a mountain
     
 Don’t ask me to swim the sea
  
 Don’t think that I’m a tower of strength
                           
 Don’t lean too much on me
      
 When lookin’ to the future
            
        Aw, don’t build your dreams too high
          
 I beg you to remember
                   
        I’m just an ordinary guy
 [bad word] 
      
 I ain’t no miracle worker
        
 I do the best that I can
      
 I ain’t no miracle worker
                                
 Lord, I ain’t no miracle man

 And I don’t have a fortune
 You know I sweat for each dime I make
 But I keep on lookin’
 I'm just looking for a lucky break
 Every day I keep on tryin’
 To do my best for you
 if tryin’ ain’t enough, babe
 Well tell me what you want me do

      
 I ain’t no miracle worker
        
 I do the best that I can
      
 I ain’t no miracle worker
                                
 Lord, I ain’t no miracle man

 You ask me to be tender
 You ask me to be [bad word] 
 You ask for all the love I have
 And girl I’ll give it all to you
 But one thing I can’t offer
 Well that's storybook romance
 If that’s what you’re lookin’ for, babe
 Well we just don’t have a chance

 [bad word] 
      
 I ain’t no miracle worker
        
 I do the best that I can
      
 I ain’t no miracle worker
                                
 Lord, I ain’t no miracle man

        
 I ain’t no miracle worker
      
 Lord, I ain’t no miracle man

        
 I ain’t no miracle worker
      
 Lord, I ain’t no miracle man
