The song Direct Me is performed by Otis Redding in the album named Dreams To Remember: The Otis Redding Anthology in the year 1998 .
I done cried a river of tears
This you may not believe
But I've been crying for five long years
Afraid of all my fears
Love has got me now
In a terrible bet
I done lost the best little woman
That I ever had
So direct me
Straight to my baby's love
Direct me
Straight to my woman's love
Shame on me, shame on me
I made a big mistake
When I see my babe again
I'm gonna bake me her favorite cake
Ten thousand dollar reward
For the first the one that finds her
When I get my hands on her, y'all
I'm gonna just chain and bound her
Somebody direct me
Straight to my baby's love
Direct me
Straight to my woman's love
Deputy sheriff on your trail
The FBI, I know
They won't fail, they can't fail
They gonna bring you back
Somebody direct me
Straight to my baby's love
Direct me
Straight to that woman's love
I got the feeling
I wanna feel it, y'all
Say I gotta feeling girl
Lord, I wanna feel it, now, now
I really do, really do, really
Really, I really do
Oh we, I need your love, now
Need your lovin' now
Somebody direct me, now
Somebody direct me, now
