He hit me and it felt like a kiss   He hit me but it didn't hurt me   He couldn't stand to hear me say   That I'd been with someone new   And when I told him I had been untrue      He hit me and it felt like a kiss   He hit me and I knew he loved me   'Cause if he didn't care for me   I could have never made him mad   He hit me and I was glad   "Baby won't you stay?"      He hit me and it felt like a kiss   He hit me and I knew I loved him   'Cause when he took me in his arms   With all the tenderness there is   He hit me and he made me glad   "Baby won't you stay?"
