Second-greatest frat-rocker ever (do I need to tell you what's #1');
according to Dave Marsh, it sounds like it was 'recorded live at Animal
House'. Originally done in the late 50's by Dick Holler and the Holidays,
and covered in 1966 by both the K-Otics and the Swingin' Medallions, the
latter of whom took it all the way to #17 that summer. And as for Holler
himself, he went on to write 'Abraham, Martin, and John' - which goes to
show you never can tell. --AWR

Verse 1:
AbWoke up this morning, my hFmead was so bad
The wDborst hangover that I eEbver had
AbWhat happened to Fmme last night
That gDbirl of mine, she lEboved me so right (yeah!) (oh, oh)
She lAboved me so long and she lFmoved me so hard
I fDbinally passed out in Ebher front yard (whoo!)
AbIt wasn't wine that I Fmhad too much of
It was a Db double Ebshot of my bAbaby's love Eb7
Chorus:
AbDouble shot of my bFmaby's love, yeah yeah, Abyeah
(Ab) Fm Ab
Double shot of my baby's love, yeah yeah, yeah
(Ab) Fm
A potion that I had too much of
It was a Db double sEbhot of my Abbaby's love Eb
[repeat intro]
Verse 2:
It was such a thrill it was hurtin' me (ooh!)
I was sufferin' in ecstasy
She had me turnin' flips and-a shoutin' out loud (yah-hah!)
A sip of her love and I was walkin' one a cloud
One night a week is-a plenty enough
It's a good thing for me they don't bottle that stuff [pop!]
Well, my heart begins to fly like a dove
When I take a double shot of my baby's love
[repeat chorus]
Coda [repeat to fade over trash organ riff from intro]:
AbDouble shot of my Fmbaby's love, yeah yeah, yeah
