“I Can’t Help Myself”
By The Four Tops
(Take notes on the musical and
thematic elements)
“I Can’t Help Myself”
Sugar pie, honey bunch you know that I love you
I can't help myself I love you and nobody else
In and out my life you come and you go
Leaving just your picture behind
And I kissed it a thousand times
When you snap your finger or wink your eye
I come a-running to you I'm tied to your apron strings
And there's nothing that I can do
Can't help myself No, I cant help myself
Sugar pie, honey bunch I'm weaker than a man should be
I cant help myself I'm a fool in love you see
Wanna tell you I dont love you tell you that we're through
And I've tried but ev'ry time I see your face
I get all choked up inside
When I call your name girl, it starts the flame
Burning in my heart tearing it all apart
No matter how I try my love I cannot hide
'Cause sugar pie, honey bunch
You know that I'm weak for you
Can't help myself I love you and nobody else
Sugar pie, honey bunch do anything you ask me to
Can't help myself I want you and nobody else
