Otis Redding
Hard to Handle (Live 1969)
[Spoken]
We'd like to warm it up for you, and do a
A little rhythm-and-blues number that was made famous
By the late, great Mr. Otis Redding
And it goes (Like this)
[Sung]
Baby, here I am, I'm a man that's on the scene
I can give you what you want, but you got to go home with me
I've got some good old lovin' and I got some in store
When I get through pourin' it on you, you got to come back for more
Boys may come a dime by the dozen
That ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Pretty little thing, let me light your candle
'Cause mama, I'm sure hard to handle, now, yes I am
Action speaks louder than words, and I'm a man with-a great experience
I know you got you another man; I can love you better than him
Take my hand, don't be afraid, I gotta prove every word I say
I can make that kinda love, for pete's sake, I gotta feed it every day
Boys may come a dime by the dozen
That ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Pretty little thing, let me light your candle
'Cause mama, I'm sure hard to handle, now, yes I am
Baby, here I am, I'm a man that's on the scene
I can give you what you want, but you got to go home with me
I've got some good old lovin' and I got some in store
When I get through pourin' it on you, you got to come back for more
Boys may come a dime by the dozen
That ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Pretty little thing, let me light your candle
'Cause mama, I'm sure hard to handle, now, yes I am
Give it to me, I gotta have it
Good ol' lovin', 'cause I'm a big old man, mama
And I'm sure hard to handle, yeah-yeah
Alright, ooh-whoo
Oh
Owch
Thank you
