Original performed by Otis Redding

[Tony Joe White - So Hard To Handle lyrics]

Baby, here I am
I'm a man on the scene
I can give you what you want
But you got to go home with me
I've a got some good old lovin'
And I got some in store
When I get through throw in' it on you
You got to come back for more
Boys and things will come by the dozen
But that ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Pretty little thing, let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle, now, yes I am

Action speaks louder than words
And I'm a man with a great experience
I know you got you another man
But, I can love you better than him
Take my hand, don't be afraid
I wanna prove every word I say
I advertize love for free, so won't ya
Place your ad with me?
Boys will come a dime by the dozen
But that ain't nothin' but ten-cent love
Pretty little thing, let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle, now, yes I am

Baby, here I am
I'm a man on the scene
I can give you what you want
But you got to go home with me
I've a got some good old lovin'
And I got some in store
When I get through throw in' it on you
You got to come back for more
Boys and things will come by the dozen
But that ain't nothin' but drugstore lovin'
Pretty little thing, let me light your candle
'Cause mama I'm sure hard to handle, now, yes I am
