The Allman Brothers Band - Maydell lyrics

Fatal beauty, the chokin' kind
Dangerous feeling in this heart of mine
How can you love me and treat me so unkind
You got me floppin' like a fish in a pan
Ain't no way to treat your man

Maydell baby won't you please love me
Maydell, you sure put the squeeze on me
I don't know why I love you
You put me through hell
I can't break your spell, Maydell
Fire spreads quick through the neighborhood
Talk is cheap when the story's good
Nobody said you did
But everybody said that you would
You got me feelin' like a dog
Chasin' his tail i'll never catch you - you
Play the game too well

Maydell baby won't you please love me
Maydell, you sure put the squeeze on me


I don't know why I love you
You put me through hell
I can't break your spell, Maydell

Every time I try to walk away just walk away
You bat them eyes, beg me to stay
Honey won't you stay
Ruby red lips, callin' my name
Forget about the sorrow and the shame
Maydell

Every time I try to walk away just walk away
You bat your eyes, beg me to stay
Honey won't you stay
Ruby red lips, callin' my name
Forget about the sorrow and the shame
Maydell

Maydell baby won't you please love me
Maydell, you sure put the squeeze on me
I don't know why I love you
You put me through hell
I can't break your spell, Maydell
