Steve Earle
 The Crush
 (John Hiatt)
 (Steve Earle's version)

 The first time I laid eyes on you
 I checked myself right out of this world
 One thing will bring me back from this heart attack
 And that's your sweet lovin', girl

 Ooh, your huggin' and kissin'
 Mmm, made my lights come on
 You put the crush on me
 Little girl, can't you see I'm gone

 And now I ain't gonna listen to reason
 There's no excuse for the way that I feel
 Before one word was spoke
 I knew it was no joke
 Baby, this love is real

 They say you gotta take time to know her
 But I can't wait that long
 You put the crush on me
 Little girl, can't you see I'm gone

 You put the crush, crush
 My mouth turns to mush
 I can't begin to speak of all of your charms
 You put the crush, crush
 Ooh, what a rush
 Now, I can't be satisfied until I'm wrapped up in your arms

 Ain't that some kind of love, babe
 You know I'm not puttin' you on
 You put the crush on me
 Little girl, can't you see I'm gone

 You put the crush, crush
 My mouth turns to mush
 I can't begin to speak of all of your charms
 You put the crush, crush
 Ooh, what a rush
 Now, I can't be satisfied until I'm wrapped up in your arms

 Ain't that some kind of love, babe
 You know I'm not puttin' you on
 You put the crush on me
 Little girl, can't you see I'm gone
