Brace Yourself Lyrics by Ben E. King

Don’t Play That Song!

0

Mmm, but I had to come say something to you, girl

Now when I saw you standing over there in the corner, yeah
I told myself, good God, she's nice and I want her
So here I am baby, on the spot
You'll need an army to make me stop

So pay attention to this
You're gonna get kissed
You better brace yourself

Just snap your finger and I'll start into hopping, yeah
You got my mind going wild and there's no stopping
So here I am baby, please don't run
I know that we could have lots of fun

So pay attention to this
You're gonna get kissed
You'd better brace yourself

You make me feel like I've never felt before, whoa
I feel like I could lift a hundred tons or more

I'd go to pieces, baby, if you should reject me
And I know I'd die if I thought you'd forget me
I don't know what's come over me
I only know that it's heavenly

So pay attention to this
You're gonna get kissed
You'd better brace yourself
Here I come baby
With all that's love
Here I come, baby, with lips that's gonna kiss you
Whoa, you better brace yourself
