The Definitive Otis Redding lyrics

I don't know what you got baby
But you're so good to me
I don't know what you're doing wrong to me baby
But you're so good to me

i've been loving you honey for a long time
And you're still good to me
I've been loving you woman 20 long years
I'll love you 20 more
'Cause i've got that will to try, huh

I remember those sweet kisses you give me last night

I've been missing you for so many days
I keep wanting you [lord} in so many ways
I cant get you off of my mind
But true love is so hard to find
I want yet another day
Ooh I need another day
Darling, let me have another more day
And I can be anything that you want me to be, now
The sweet things you used to do to me
Sometimes you used to say them to me

These arms of mine
They are lonely
Lonely and feeling blue
These arms of mine
They are yearning
Yearning from wanting you
And if you would let them hold you
Oh how grateful I will be

These arms of mine
They are burning
Burning from wanting you
These arms of mine
They are wanting
Wanting to hold you
And if you would let them hold you
Oh how greateful I will be

Your precious love, now
Me moan to me
They didn't love, they didn't love would ever be, me
For when i wanted you, oh now
I was so lonely and so blue
That's what love, that's what love really made me do

And darling, oh, they keep saying that our love will go, now
But honey i wanna tell them
And i just wanna show them
How in the world do they know, now

It's very long, oh now, oh now

I'm a Love Man
Call me the Love Man
Oooh, baby I'm the Love Man
That's what they call me I'm a Love Man
Six feet one weigh two hundred and ten
A Long hair... Real fair skin
A long legs and I'm-a out-a sight
There ain't no doubt I'm gonna take you out,
'Cause I'm a love man
That's what they call me I'm the Love Man
Make love to you in the mornin'
Make love to you at night now

I, I'm dreaming, dreaming of a white, white Christmas, y'all
Just like the one that I used to know, oh
Honey, it's where the treetop, treetop listen
Little bitty, litle bitty, little bitty children should
They try to listen
To hear, before the sleebells that are ringing
through the snow

I wanna tell you one more time what I'm thinking about
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, yeah

I don't do the things that you do
And i don't go the places that you go
And i don't say the bad things that you say

But i love you any ole way, dar
i love you any ole way, now
i love you any ole way
But i want you to say that it's true

Wherever you go darlin' i will go
When you get there honey i will be there
Just to hear the sweet words that you say
It's i love you every way, now

Turn me loose
There ain't no use
Free me darling
Don't hang me up
Let me go from your love, now

Just like a prisoner
You got me chained and bound
Unlock 'em, Let me go, let me go
Get 'em from around

Turn me loose
There ain't no use
Free me baby, Let me go, Turn me loose
From your love, now

You know I did love you, yeah
Do anything in the world for you

I saw her dancing, dancing
In some old smokey place
I bet I was the only one there to watch her face

All night I never saw a smile there
'Cause she didn't even try
You know for just a little while there
I saw a tear in her eyes

Come on
Come on baby I love to see you now
Ou wi
One more time baby watch me swinging, huh

I sit and watch her on the floor
I said baby, baby, baby

Hey lorene girl, huh
Bring yourself home to me
You've got my mind
Messed up and shattered
I'm at the point
Where don't nothin' matter
You got me beggin', pleadin' and needin'
Oh sweet lorene, girl, all right

The places that we used to go
I can't stand to go there no more
The smilin' faces we used to see
I bow my head
'Cause they're starin' at me, now
