When you find yourself alone
And when going out is coming home
Well, you can count on the kid
'Cause there's nobody waiting around, oh, oh

If you're not an easy mark
It's a shot in the dark that hits the heart
And I know, I know, I know, I know when it's coming
I thought so anyway

Some things stay the same
And some are due for change
I thought I had them all nailed down
But you turned it around

Oh, you did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it
I know, I know, I know, I know you did it
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it

Well, I still can't say
I know when a love is real or touch and go
And if two can be one
Who is the one two becomes, oh, oh

Am I quick enough to see
When I'm ready and it's right for me?
I say, I say, I say, I say that I want it
I think so anyway

Everybody always laughs at love
But what they want is to be proven wrong
Then you came along

Oh, you did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it
I know, I know, I know, oh, I know you did it
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it, yeah

I know, I know, I know, I know you did it
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it
I didn't really plan it

But you you did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it
I know, I know, I know, oh
You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it

I want someone to prove I'm wrong
You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it
I know, I know, I know, I know you did it
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it

You messin' with my love life
You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it
I know, I know, I know, I know you did it
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it
Wow, ooh, wow, ooh, oh

You did it, you did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute, you did it

Hall & Oates

Hall & Oates released the first of their 18 albums in 1972 on Atlantic Records. They would go on to sell 13 million albums and 6 million singles primarily during the 70’s and 80’s when they recorded their most prolific and profound music. They blended rock, jazz, soul, and pop create a genre they titled rock and soul.

While their technical musicianship, innovative songwriting styles, and popular live performances were praised, they also had a fruitful partnership with their manager Tommy Mottola, who was helped Hall & Oates break into music videos before they were popular and made profitable financial deals by helping them get on the ground level of and corporate sponsorship of tours. Hall & Oates were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014.
