Lyrics Wilson Pickett

Wilson Pickett

Covering The Same Old Ground

I know I broke your heart, and I made you cry

Made your life so miserable, darlin'

You wanted to die

Now you got your hopes on someone new

He's gonna treat you, darlin', worser than I used to do

You better stop and think about it

'Fore you make your move, darlin'

Take another look around

You may be headed in a different direction

All you covering is that same old ground

I regret (I regret, I regret, baby)

All the pain I caused you (But you're headin' for)

Oh, I wanna make it up to you darlin'

One of these old days (One of these old days)

Oh I can't stand, oh I can't stand my darlin'

Watch him woo you the same old way

You better stop and think about it

'Fore you make your move, darlin' (Stop)

Take another look around

You may be headed (You may be headed)

In a different direction (In a different direction)

All you covering is that same old ground

Stop, lord, think about it

'Fore you make your move, ooh darlin' (Stop)

Take a look around (Think about it)

You may be headed (You may be headed)

In a different direction (In a different direction)

All you covering is that same old ground (The same old ground)

Stop it, baby, stop right there and think about it

Don't go no further (Stop)

Take one more look around (Think about it)
