Texty: Otis Redding. The Immortal Otis Redding. Think About It.

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

Look how you paying me back
Look how you turn in your bag
Please, don't do me like this, honey
All this good love you're gonna miss

Think about it, honey
You really ought to think about it
'Fore you leave me, dig this

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

But look what you're doing to me
And look how you're hurting me
Please, don't do me like this
All of this good love, baby, you're gonna miss

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
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 out love aside
Just wait, before you tell me goodbye

Hmm, yeah, 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 said, I'm staying up all night
