I was a tall cool cat and I was on my own
Calling girlie after girl on my telephone
Then she stopped me in my tracks with those coal black eyes
She put me on my back, I was paralyzed
My baby's love is hard, my baby's love is tough
If I were anybody else I'd have had enough
Cause she treats me like a dog, not a cute little pup
But I've fallen in love and I can't get up!
Get up!
I've fallen in love
And I can't get up!
I've fallen in love
I was a billion dollar baby in a diamond vest
Now I'm a dirty desperado and a steaming mess
She drive me nervous as a cat on a hot tin roof
She's like a deadly cup of poison that I can't refuse
My baby's love is hard, my baby's love is rough
If I were anybody else I'd have had enough
I mean, I used to be a stud, now I'm a powder puff
Cause I've fallen in love and I can't get up!
Get up!
I've fallen in love
And I can't get up!
I've fallen in love
Now I'm laying on the floor, I'm a broken mess
Somebody rescue me, I'm in distress
I need an S.O.S
My baby's love is hard, my baby's love is tough
If I were anybody else I'd o' had enough
Cause she treats me like a dog, not a cute little pup
But I've fallen in love and I can't get up!
Get up!
I've fallen in love
And I can't get up!
I've fallen in love
