He hit me and it felt like a kiss
He hit me but it didn't hurt me
He couldn't stand to hear me say
That I had been with someone new
And when I told him I had been un-true
He hit me and it felt like a kiss
He hit me and I knew he loved me
Cuz if he didn't care for me
I could have never made him mad
He hit me and I was glad
Baby, won't you stay?
Baby, won't you stay?
He hit me and it felt like a kiss
And he hit me and I knew I loved him
Cuz when he took me in his arms
With all the ten-derness there is
He hit me and he made me his
Baby, won't you stay?
Baby, won't you stay?
Baby, won't you stay?
