Crimson & Clover


Ah, now I don't hardly know her But I think I can love her Crimson and clover

Ah, now when she comes walkin' over Now I've been waitin' to show her Crimson and clover, over and over

Yeah, I'm not such a sweet thing I wanna do everything What a beautiful feelin' Crimson and clover, over and over

Crimson and clover, over and over Crimson and clover, over and over Crimson and clover, over and over Crimson and clover, over and over

I Hate Myself


Ow, uh

Midnight gettin' uptight where are you You said you'd meet me now it's quarter to two I know I'm hangin' but I'm still wantin' you

Hey Jack it's a fact they're talkin' in town I turn my back and you're messin' around I'm not getting jealous don't I like lookin' like a clown

I think of you every night and day You took my heart then you took my pride away

I hate myself for loving you Can't break free from the the things that you do I wanna walk but I run back to you That's why I hate myself for loving you Ow, uh


Daylight spent the night without you But I've been dreamin' 'bout the lovin' you do I'm over being angry 'bout the hell you put me through

Hey man bet you can't treat me right You just don't know what you was missin' last night I wanna see you beggin' say forget it just for spite

I think of you every night and day You took my heart then you took my pride away

I hate myself for loving you Can't break free from the the things that you do I wanna walk but I run back to you That's why I hate myself for loving you Ow, uh

I think of you every night and day You took my heart then you took my pride away

I hate myself for loving you Can't break free from the things that you do I wanna walk but I run back to you That's why I hate myself for loving you

I hate myself for loving you Can't break free from the the things that you do I wanna walk but I run back to you That's why I hate myself for loving you

I hate myself ow, uh For loving you I hate myself ow, uh For loving you I hate myself ow, ow, ow For loving you I hate myself ow I hate myself For loving you
