“You Can Leave Your Hat On” was written by Randy Newman in 1969. It appears on the Joe Cocker album Cocker (1986).


Baby, take off your coat
Real slow
Take off your shoes
I'll take off your shoes
Baby, take off your dress
Yes, yes, yes

[Chorus]
You can leave your hat on
You can leave your hat on
You can leave your hat on

"Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home)" was originally recorded by Marvin G a y e and released in 1963 on his album That Stubborn Kinda Fellow. It was written by Barret Strong , Marvin G a y e and Norman Whitfield.


By the look in your eye I can tell you're gonna cry, is it over me?
If it is, save your tears for I'm not worth it, you see.
For I'm the kind of guy who is always on the roam,
Wherever I Lay My Hat That's My Home.
You had a romance, did you break it by chance over me?
If it's so I'd like for you to know that I'm not worth it, you see.
For I'm the type of guy who is always on the roam,
Wherever I Lay My Hat That's My Home
