You Can't Make Love To Somebody:Carl Perkins.
Recorded at Sun Records in 1955.
(There are a couple of versions of this song.)
CHORUS:
Well, you can't make love to somebody,
when you got somebody else on your mind.
Oh, you can't make love to another,
when you try, you're just wasting your time.
#1.
I got my gal by the hand, started dancing.
I tried to lose these low down blues I couldn't hide.
Yeah, that ol' funk gave me the shove, and I kept crawlin'..
thought I'd loooonnng satisfied.
CHORUS:
Well, you can't make love to somebody,
when you got somebody else on your mind.
Oh, you can't make love to another,
when you try, you're just wasting your time.
(INTERLUDE:)
CHORUS:
Well, you can't make love to somebody,
when you got somebody else on your mind.
Oh, you can't make love to another,
when you try, you're just wasting your time.
#2.
Listen boy, ain't no joy when you're lonesome.
Troubled time get you off on the wrong track.
Listen to a man that's had a lot experience..
if you do wrong then you'll never win her back.
CHORUS:
Well, you can't make love to somebody,
when you got somebody else on your mind.
I said, you can't make love to another,
when you try, you're just wasting your time.
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
