Simply Red

In the middle of the night, when the time is right
Sexily right, I'm gonna do the right thing
Gonna move you slow, much harder though
Sexily so, I'm gonna do the right thing
Feelin' hot, I ain't never gonna stop
To get what you got, you better take what I bring
Feel it now, much harder now
More than any old how, say you feel the pain
Feel I'm getting harder now, get off you back four
Get on top more owww!
Feel I'm sinking farther down, get off you back four
Get on top more
I told you to stop, 'You're sleeping out a lot'
You told me get lost, where's your understanding
I feel it now much harder than I've ever done now
I'd better do the right thing
I'm gonna do the right thing
I'm gonna do the right thing
Feel I'm getting harder now, get off you back four
Get on top more owww!
Feel I'm sinking farther down, get off you back four
Get on top more
In the middle of the night, when the time is right
Sexily right, I'm gonna do the right thing
Gonna move you slow, much harder than I've ever done now
I'm gonna do the right thing
I'm gonna do the right thing
I'm gonna do the right thing
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
You know I told you that I would never dream of leaving
If I did it right
I'm gonna do the right thing

Simply Red is a British soul and pop band. The first incarnation of the band was a punk group called The Frantic Elevators, whose seven-year run produced limited releases on local labels and ended in 1984 upon critical acclaim for their final single, “Holding Back the Years”.

By early 1985, Mick Hucknall and manager Elliot Rashman had assembled a band of local session musicians and begun to attract record company attention. The group adopted the name “Red” (after Hucknall’s nickname, denoting his hair colour) but then Mick decided it would sound better with the addition of the word ‘Simply.’

Since the mid 1980s, the band has sold more than 50 million albums.
