One hit to the body
Shook me straight to the mark, so help me God
One more from the body, one more straight from the heart
Yeah, it's one shot when you love me
One shot when you leave
I don't need no security
I just need me some peace

Come straight from the heart

One voice calls out my name
Shook me straight to the mark
(Straight from the heart)

One hit to the body
Sure went straight to the mark
