I dont wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat keeps on hammering
I met a little cuttie back in 66
She used to tie you up and beat you with a walking stick
I said, Mama call a doctor you must be sick
She told me thats the only way I get my kicks
I dont wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat keeps on hammering
I been around the world about a time and again
I met a little chick in an opium den
She put a spell on me thatd freeze a man
I said, Help me, save me but she did it again
I dont wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat keeps on hammering
I met a little lady just yesterday
Lord she loves me in a special way
She put coffee in my tea and she love to say
I wanna hold you, I wanna keep you baby now dont be afraid
I dont wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat keeps on hammering, yeah
I dont wanna lose, I dont wanna lose
I dont wanna lose, I dont wanna lose myself in love again, no no, no no
I dont wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat, yes my beatin heart
My heartbeat keeps on hammering, yeah
