O'Jays – You Got Your Hooks In Me lyrics

I just can't understand for the life of me
What I see in you.
Yet every time you talk of leaving me,
I get so shook up I don't know what to do.

Aw. Aw, baby,
I guess you got your hooks in me and I...
Oh, I...Oh, I'm caught like a fish
And baby, I just can't break free.
You know, this thing is killing me.
(Ooooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.)
I must like it (Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.)
Or, or I wouldn't be here, baby.

Every time I get behind your back,
I tell my friends I'm leaving you. No.
And when you question me about it, baby,
I swear what they're saying just ain't true. No, no.

Aw, aw, aw, baby,
I guess you got your hooks in me and I...
Oh, oh, oh, I'm caught like a fish, aw,
And baby, I just can't break free.
You know this thing is killing me, killing me.

(Oh, oh, oh, baby,) Oh, oh, baby, I-I,
(I guess you got your hooks in me.) I guess
I'm gonna keep on loving you, loving you, loving you.
Oh, oh, oh. Hey, hey, heh, eh.
(Oh, oh, oh, baby,) Baby, baby, baby, I guess.
(I guess you got your hooks in me.)
I guess, I guess you got your hooks in me, woman,
And I must like it. I must, I must like it, like it.
(Oh, oh, oh, baby,) Baby, baby.
Baby, what you do to me. What you do to me,
(I guess you got your hooks in me.)
I said, woman, is good to me, good to me, so good to me
And I like it, I like it.
(Oh, oh, oh, baby,) Oh, oh, baby, I guess
(I guess you got your hooks in me.)
I'm in love with you, woman,
But I don't wanna quit, I just don't wanna quit.
I wanna hold you, I wanna hold you close to me, woman.
(Oh, oh, oh, baby,) Oh, oh, oh, baby.
Hey, hey, sweet woman, I'm loving, loving you
(I guess you got your hooks in me.)
And I'm hooked, I'm hooked, I'm hooked, baby, baby.

(Oh, oh, oh, baby.) Uh, uh, uh, ah, ah, ah.
(Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.)
I gotta...I'm gonna get away.
You got poor me hanging on a string, darling,
(Well.) Aw, I must like this thing.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.
I said woman, woman.
You do the things that you do. The way you...
The way you call my name, woman, I like it.
I'll be going around telling all my friends that I'm leaving,
No, but I ain't never going nowhere, no, no.
I said woman. I said woman, the way...
The way you love me, the way you love me,
I feel, feel, feel, feel like I need you, I want you,
Got to have it.

(Oh, oh, oh, baby,) Oh, oh. Oh, oh, baby, baby. (Oh, baby.)
(I guess you got your hooks in me.) I guess you got,
You got your arms in around, in around.
(I think you've been somewhere and had me think about it, 'cause I like
It.)
Around. I said woman.
(Oh, oh, oh, baby,) Little girl, little girl, you got me,
(I guess you got your hooks in me.) You got me,
You got me hooked, child. Hooked, child, and I like it.
I like it, I like it, I like it.
(Oh, oh, oh, baby,) Aw, baby. Eh, eh, eh. (Oh, honey.)
(I guess you got your hooks in me.)
I guess you got your, you got your hooks in me, woman.
