Van Morrison - Can't Help Myself Lyrics

Van Morrison Lyrics

"Can't Help Myself"
(feat. Taj Mahal)

Well, I love you, baby, love you, and I
Just can't help myself
Well, I love you, baby, love you, and I just can't help myself
Well, it hurts me so bad you been loving someone else

But you want me, baby, to be like Jesse James
But you want me, baby, to be just like Jesse James
Want me to kill some men and rob the fastest train

Love you, baby, love you, and I'll tell the world I do
Well, I love you, baby, love you, and I'll tell the world I do
You must want me, baby, to
Lie down and die for you

But I may go north and south and I may go east and west (Uh-huh)
Well, I may go north and south then I may go east and west
When I'm gone I'm gone till I find sweet happiness
True love, true love, well, it don't run smooth, you know
True love, true love, well, it don't run smooth, you know
Well, I'll be on your mind and I don't care where you go
But I may go north and south and I may go east and west
But I may go north and south and I may go east and west
When I'm gone I'm gone till I find sweet happiness
When I'm gone I'm gone till I find sweet happiness
When I'm gone I'm gone till I find sweet happiness
