The Immortal Otis Redding lyrics

When I sing this song
[I'm] Singing it for my baby
She s the only one that can bring me joy
Thats why, I sing these happy songs They go

Dum dum baby de dum dum
Dum dum baby de dum dum
Dum dum baby de dum dum
[Come on now] Happy song Happy song [now]

On a cold rainy windy night
She'd shut off the door
She cuts off the light
She holds me and squeeze me tight

Sittin' here thinking, about the times I roamed
Different girls, that I have known
Of all girls, that I have met
You are the one girl that I can't forget, listen

We had our time, now
Good and bad, now
I can't forget a man
I sho' ain't gonna forget him, now
Remember Side Stream
Where we used to meet
Making love, nobody but you and me

Champagne and wine
That's what you gonna get

I've got dreams
Dreams to remember
I've got dreams Dreams to remember

Honey I saw you there last night
Another mans arms holding you tight
Nobody knows what I feeled inside
All I know, I walked away and cried

I've got dreams
Dreams to remember
[Listen to me] I've got dreams, rough dreams Dreams to remember

I know you said he was just a friend

Wait!
Before you walk out that door
Hang your clothes in the closet
You're forgetting one thing
I'm the one who saved you
From a long lonely life
I'm the one who gave you
You're first taste to paradise

Look how you payin' me back
Look how you pack in your bag
Please don't do me like this, honey
All this good love you're gonna miss

Think about it, honey

Amen, uh, A-Amen, uh
A-Amen, Amen, Amen, with the horns, now
Amen, with the rhytm, now
A-Amen, A-Amen
A-Amen, Amen, Amen, everybody, now
A-Amen, A-Amen
A-Amen, Amen, Amen, he let me tell you

This little life of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little life of mine
I'm gonna let it shine, yeah, yeah
This little life of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine

John Lennon, Paul McCartney
I've got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
I got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
She was a day tripper
One way ticket, yeah
It took me so
So long to find out but I found out
Now she's a big teaser
She took me half the way there
She's a big teaser
She took me half the way there
It was a day tripper
Sunday driver now
