Maudie - Eric Burdon, The Animals

About his wife, her name is Maudie

Everytime he has an arguement with her

He has to write a new verse to keep her happy

He was over here at London a short while back

And he taught me this song ???"

Oh Maudie, baby, I love you

Mmm, baby, I love you

Yeah, you’ve been gone so long

Girl, I miss you so

Oh Maudie, why did you hurt me?

Mmm, Maudie, I said why did you hurt me?

You know I need your sweet lovin' like a flower needs the rain

Sometimes when they’d have an argument

He’d take her by the hand and say

«Maudie, you know I love you

You know I need you

And I got just one thing to say baby… ho!»

Hey Maudie, baby don’t you know I love you

Oh, Maudie, I said baby don’t you know I love you

I’ve been gone so long, God, I miss you so much

Sometimes Johns old lady

She’d turn around to him and say

«John, if you don’t quit your messin' around baby

I’m gonna walk right outta that door

With my bag in my hand.»

John would say, «Hey!»

Well, Maudie, sweet little girl, baby

Oh Maudie, be my sweet little girl, baby

When you touch my hand

My head is all in a whirl now baby

I love you Maudie

I said I love you Maudie

Oh, love you Maudie

Ooh, love you Maudie

You know I need, I need, I need, need, yeah

I said Maudie, baby, I love you

Oh Maudie, baby, I love you

I love you Maudie

You’ve been gone so long

How I’ve missed you too much

I love you
