Otis Redding — Think About It

[Verse 1] Wait! Before you walk out that door Hang your clothes in the closet You're forgetting one thing I'm the one who saved you From a long lonely life I'm the one who gave you Your first taste to paradise [Pre-Chorus] Look how you're paying me back Look how you're turnin' your back Please, don't do me like this, honey All this good love you're gonna miss [Chorus] Think about it, honey You really ought to think about it 'fore you leave me Dig this [Verse 2] I'm the one who showed you How to live when you wanted to die I'm the one who taught you How to laugh when you wanted to cry [Pre-Chorus] But look what you're doing to me Look how you're hurting me Please don't do me like this All of this good lovin' you're gonna miss [Chorus] Think about it, baby, listen You really, really ought to think about it 'fore you leave You really ought to think about it Deep down think about it 'fore you leave me [Bridge] Do this for me, honey Don't make me no lonely man Don't try to push me out of your plan Don't try to kick our love aside Just wait before you tell me goodbye Mhm, yeah [Outro] You really, really, really, really, really ought to think about it How I give You really, really, really ought to think about it How I live One million times, I sat up, stayed up all night
