Hush Lyrics
[Refrain]
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na
[Verse 1]
I got a certain little girl, she's on my mind
No doubt about it, she looks so fine
She's the best girl that I ever had
Sometimes she's gonna make me feel so bad
[Refrain]
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na
[Pre-Chorus]
Hush, hush
I thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
She broke my heart but I love her just the same now
Hush, hush
Thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
I need her loving and I'm not to blame now
[Chorus]
(Love, love)
They got it early in the morning
(Love, love)
They got it late in the evening
(Love, love)
Well, I want that, need it
(Love, love)
Oh, I gotta gotta have it
[Verse 2]
She's got loving like quicksand
Only took one touch of her hand
To blow my mind and I'm in so deep
That I can't eat and I can't sleep
[Refrain]
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na
[Pre-Chorus]
Listen, hush, hush
I thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
She broke my heart but I love her just the same now
Hush, hush
Thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
I need her loving and I'm not to blame now
[Chorus]
(Love, love)
They got it early in the morning
(Love, love)
They got it late in the evening
(Love, love)
Well, I want that, need it
(Love, love)
Yeah I gotta gotta have it
[Organ Solo]
[Refrain]
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na
