Otis Redding · Soul Legend/very Best Of Otis Redding [2011]
Yes she did
She put the hurt on me, y'all
Oh she put the hurt on me
My baby socked it to me
Put the hurt on me, y'all
** Oh she put the hurt on me
Yes she did
She put the hurt on me, children
Oh she put the hurt on me, huh
My baby socked it to me
She put the hurt on me, now
* Wait a minute
I gotta tell you about it
She give me twenty two minutes of love
I had to think about it
She give me forty minutes
I had to talk about it
She give me sixty minutes
I can't do without it
She give me one hour of love, y'all
She give me that yeah
Oh she put the hurt on me
Yes she did
She put the hurt on me, y'all, now
Oh she put the hurt on me, huh
My baby did it to me
Put the hurt on me, y'all
(* Repeat: 2nd time
I couldn't do without it
She give me one hour of love
Then knocked me on the floor y'all)

Oh she put the hurt on me
My baby did the thing to me
She did the-
Oh she put the hurt on me
My baby rolled me on my back...
