Direct Me

(album: Otis - 2019)

I done cried a river of tears
This you may not believe
But I've been crying for five long years
Afraid of all my fears
Love has got me now
In a terrible bet
I done lost the best little woman
That I ever had

So direct me
Straight to my baby's love
Direct me
Straight to my woman's love

Shame on me, shame on me
I made a big mistake
When I see my babe again
I'm gonna bake me her favorite cake
Ten thousand dollar reward
For the first the one that finds her
When I get my hands on her, y'all
I'm gonna just chain and bind her

So direct me
Straight to my baby's love
Direct me
Straight to my woman's love

Deputy sheriff on your trail
The FBI, I know, they won't fail
They can't fail
They're gonna bring you back

So direct me
Straight to my baby's love
Direct me
Straight to that woman's love
I got the feeling
I want to feel it yeah
Say I gotta feeling girl
Lord, I want to feel it yeah

So direct me
Straight to my baby's love
Direct me
Straight to that woman's love

I need you, I need you, oh
Somebody direct me yeah
