Soothe Me
Lyrics and Music: Sam Cooke

 

Soothe me, baby, soothe me.

Soothe me with your eyes.

Though I know your powerful loving is soothing to me.

 

I used to have a lot of girls.

Had them big and small.

Since I’ve met this baby of mine I don’t want no other girls at all.

Soothe me, baby, soothe me.

Soothe me with your kindness.

Though I know your powerful loving is soothing to me.

 

Oh, how I used to ramble.

Oh, how I used to roam.

Since I found this sweet little thing all I wanna do is stay at home...

At home...

Soothe me, baby, soothe me.

Soothe me with your eyes.

Though I know your powerful loving is soothing to me.

 

One more time now!

 

Soothe me, baby, soothe me.

Soothe me with your kindness.

Though I know your mama don’t like it. It’s soothing to me.

 

Play for me one time!

 

Oh yeah!

Now listen...

 

Oh, once I was a worried man, I was drinking night and day.

Now I’ve got this angel by my side.

All my worries have drifted away.

Come on!

Soothe me, baby, soothe me.

Soothe me with your kindness.

Though I know your mama don’t like it. It’s soothing to me.

Ooh!

 

Oh, I know that one, honey!

Ooh!

 

Soothe me, baby!

Ooh, ooh, ooh, soothe me, baby!

Ooh, ooh, ooh, soothe me, baby!

Soothe me, baby, soothe me!

Soothe me with your kindness.

Though I know your powerful loving is soothing to me.

Soothe me, baby!

Oh, you gotta soothe me, baby!

Just soothe me with your eyes!

Though I know your mama don’t like it. It’s soothing to me.
