I HAVE to Hit a B*tch (1958)

#obscurevinyl #obscurerecords #strictlyvinyl #vinyl #vinylrip #nostalgia #music #classicvinyl #funk #soul #50s
Extremely rare stereo 1950's rhythm and blues soul single written and performed by Buster I. Goode, the legendary soul singer and men's rights slap-tivist leader. Buster grew up in the rural south, saying quote "I couldn't read or write so well, but I could slap a b*tch like ringing a bell!". This chart topping single hit #1 on the Top 100 pop list for a whole week in 1958 until The Coasters' "Yakety Yak" took it's spot, and tragically also took it's spot on peoples' record shelves at home as many copies ended up getting taken out with "the papers and the trash". Thanks to Ike Turner for donating this copy to the archive, making it available again for listening. So clench your fists, let your forehead veins twitch, grab your favorite beverage and let your uncontrollable urge to slap a b*tch meet necessary release.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I feel my hand making a fist
You make the vein in my forehead twitch
I got an itch that I have to scratch
I got a b*tch that NEEDS to be slapped

[Chorus 1]
Baby! You won't stop talking sh*t (shut up!)
She just don't know when to quit (give it up)
You make it so hard for me to resist (look out!)
Sometimes I just HAVE to hit a b*tch (ow!)

[Verse 2]
Now nothing ever feels quite right
You make it hard to sleep at night
Baby! My fist needs to get some rest
B*tch! I'm not someone you should test

[Chorus 2]
Baby! You won't stop talking sh*t (shut up!)
She just don't know when to quit (give it up)
It's impossible for me to resist (look out!)
I absolutely HAVE to hit a b*tch

[Bridge]
I GOT to (hit a b*tch) Oh yeah!
I NEED to (hit a b*tch) All right!
This is a job that requires a man (oh yeah)
Baby! Let me give your mouth a hand

[Verse 3]
I feel my hand making a fist
You make the vein in my forehead twitch
I GOT an itch that I HAVE to scratch
I got a b*tch that NEEDS to be slapped

[Chorus 3]
Baby! You won't stop talking sh*t (shut up!)
She just don't know when to quit (give it up)
You make it so hard for me to resist (look out!)
I GOT to, I NEED to, I HAVE to hit a b*tch
