IF I REALLY BUG YOU
(Feliciano / Feliciano)

José Feliciano - 1965


Well I call up to your house, I knock upon the door
I walk across the parlour, my shoes squeek on the floor
The first thing that you say, lots o' lies, don't wanna hear
You say you got a headache, you say "please don't bug me, dear"
Well, if I really bug you, then you don't love me
You know that's the truth and that's the way it's gotta be
Well, if I really bug you, then you don't love me

Well, I try to kiss your cheek, and you jerk away your face
I take you to a restaurant, you say you hate the place
I take you to a movie and you can't stand the show
I beg you to be nice to me, you tell me where to go
Well, if I really bug you, then you don't love me
You know it's the truth and that's the way it's gotta be
Well, if I really bug you, then you don't love me

(Instrumental Break)

Well, I'm tired of you now and I'm showing you the door
I want you to get out and don't come back no more
The first thing that you say, lots o' lies, don't wanna hear
You're givin' me a headach with your "please don't bug me, dear"
Well, if I really bug you, then you don't love me
You know it's the truth and that's the way it's gotta be
Well, if I really bug you, then you don't love me
Yeah, if you don't love me, baby, yea- eah

SPOKEN:
You know, baby, I don't know why it is, but ev'ry time I go up to your house, you tell me that I really bug you. And I don't dig that, baby, 'cause I don't dig your jive. I love you, yeah, baby. Ev'ry time I take you out to the Village, you wan't to have a sausage sandwich and spend money, baby. I don't know why, but ev'ry time, ev'ry time, baby. I use insect repellent on you. You tell me that I bug you. Yeah, baby. Yeah. I don't know why .............FADE
