Bad Company

I don't wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering, yeah

I met a little cutie back in sixty-six
She used to tie you up
And beat you with a walking stick
I said, 'Mama, call a doctor you must be sick!'
She told me that's the only way I get my kicks

I don't wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering

I been around the world about a time and again
I met a little chick in an opium den
She put a spell on me that'd freeze a man
I said, 'help me, save me', but she did it again
I don't wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering
Yeah, ok

Oh, oh, oh, yeah

I met a little lady just yesterday
Lord, she loves me in a special way
She put coffee in my tea and she love to say

'I wanna hold you, I wanna keep you, baby
Now don't be afraid'

I don't wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat keeps on a hammering, yeah

I don't wanna lose; I don't wanna lose
I don't wanna lose;
I don't wanna lose myself in love again, yeah

No, no, lord no
I don't wanna lose myself in love again
But my heartbeat, yes my beating heart
My heartbeat keeps on hammering

Bad Company was not only formed as a supergroup from members of Free (Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke), Mott the Hoople (Mick Ralphs), and King Crimson (Boz Burrell), but also was immediately signed as the first act on Led Zeppelin’s new label, Swan Song.

So they had a charmed life, from the start. And they made good on everything it promised. They had so many hits we just don’t wanna type them all in with the fancy markup here, so just check them out for yourself, listed by popularity on this very page. Suffice it to say there are few hard blues-rock bands with more songs that hit the US charts.

Here’s one of them, Bad Company, by Bad Company, off the album Bad
