Hey, I gotta know now.
Well, I went out searchin' for somethin', baby,
I left it behind me, honey, now I see, yeah.
Well alright, well alright.Well I guess I move once too often, babe,
An' I woke up and found myself alone.
Whoa, I guess I moved just one too many times,
Woke up an' found myself alone,
Hey, I don't like it!
Cold sheets made me realize
Catch me, daddy, 'cause I'm movin' on.
Hey, hey, whoaaa!Come on up, come on up, come up I've got to move on
Come on up, because I've got to go
Because you know I got to find me my baby, yeah

You know I got to find me my baby, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I've got to find me my man, come on,
Come, take it on down, take it on down now,A little softer babe, said a little softer babe,
S-s-s-softer now, you like it like that,
Said I like it like that,
Feels so good to me, feels so good to me, yeah, yeah
I like it like that, yeah I like it like that.
Honey, I wanna kneel till I get to ya,
I wanna tell you something baby
I wanna tell you something baby now
I wanna tell you about my baby, Lord
Tell you 'bout my man.You know, I want ya, need ya, I gotta have ya
'Cause I want ya need ya, 'cause I gotta have ya

Hon, I've been lonely at night.
I've been lonely in the afternoon
I said, "Janis, you know it ain't right".Baby, it's time you would hold me
Yeah, hey, comin' home, babe,

Yeah!
Ooh!
Hey!I said I'm goin' on down to Brownsville
Gonna take, take, take your ride and roll,
Whoaaa, if you see me my baby, comin', oh, come on, comin' home,
Alright!

Both Janis Joplin and Big Brother and the Holding Co. were waaaaaay ahead of their time. Brilliant!

Excellent

FAVOURITE VERSION

It's true the album was recorded in the studio, but 'Catch Me Daddy' was truly recorded live at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit. I was there!

***Catch Me Daddy***
IS NOT on Cheap Thrills
as you seem to want to pretend

In the original version it evidently is not. However in the reissue of '99 if this as a bonus track.

uma das minhas preferidas...

GOSH, I wish I'd been at that concert. WRONG. hee-hee
Cheap Thrills is a studio album by American blues rock band Big Brother and the Holding Company. It was their last album with Janis Joplin as lead singer. For Cheap Thrills, the band and producer John Simon incorporated recordings of crowd noise to give the impression of a live album, which it was subsequently mistaken for by listeners. Only the final song, their cover of "Ball and Chain", had been recorded live at The Fillmore in San Francisco

So what. Still a masterpiece and no reflection on Janis. That fucking band sucked.

Detroit Grande Ballroom ! I would imagine that they would have rocked that spring loaded dance floor ....

@Travis Phillips They woulda but i bleev they dint as this album was made iin the studio. But cha never know.

Catch me and Magic of Love weren't on the original LP, these are bonus live performances Detroit Grande Ballroom March 02 1968 added by the poster. Now you know.
