The Box Tops

The Box Tops were a Memphis rock group from the 1960s. They are best known for the hits "The Letter", "Cry Like a Baby", and "Soul Deep" and are considered a major blue-eyed soul group of the period. They performed a mixture of current soul music songs by artists such as James and Bobby Purify and Clifford Curry, pop tunes such as "A Whiter Shade of Pale" by Keith Reid, Gary Brooker and Matthew Fisher of Procol Harum, and songs written by their producers, Dan Penn, Spooner Oldham, and Chips Moman. Vocalist Alex Chilton went on to front the powerpop band Big Star and to launch a career as a solo artist, during which he occasionally performed songs he had sung with the Box Tops. more »

I feel low as I can go 
I can't show nor let go 
I feel that 
I feel that 
I feel that, now, I must be the Devil, baby 
Whoa, better not let me catch onto you 
Whoa, you better not let me, darling 
Aw-w-w, I'll drag you down into this old hole 
Mama don't want to see you down there, too 
Uh-uh, no she don't, now 

Well, I can't stop this evil feel 
Do you want to make a deal? 
I can't stop? 
I can't stop? 
I can't stop now; I must be the Devil, baby 
Whoa, don't make no deals with me 
Whoa, you don't want to make no deals, no you don't now 
I've got a long list of broken souls 
Well, it stretches far as your little eyes can see 
Uh-huh, yes it do now 

Well I can't bear to see my face 
Wrongs done I can't erase 
It's all wrong? 
It's all wrong? 
It's all wrong, now. Oh God! I must be the Devil, baby 
Or I must just be out of my head 
Oh yes, I must be out of my head, now 
Well, I just don't seem to know, no more? 
Whoa God? 
Whoa God, you know? 
Oh God? 
I wish I was dead 
I wish I was, I really do
