	The Who's early R&B covers are pretty much universally slammed, and this one certainly pales in comparison with the classic Martha and the Vandellas blockbuster (and even Linda Ronstadt's version), but this is not at all a bad effort. To most people whose Who experience began with their hard rocking icons Who's Next or Quadrophenia, it's impossible to comprehend that The Who would consider tackling this song.

Lyrics

Heat wave
Heat wave

Whenever I'm with you
Something inside
Starts to burn deep
And my heart's filled with fire
Could be that I'm very sentimental
Or is this just the way love's supposed to be?

chorus:
I got a heat wave
Burning in my heart
I can't keep from crying
Tearing me apart

Sometimes she calls my name
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I can't explain
I feel, yeah I feel
I feel this burning flame
This high blood pressure's got a hold on me
'Cause this is the way love's supposed to be

(chorus)

Oh yeah
Oh yeah

Oh yeah
Oh yeah

Just give me another chance
This could be a new romance

Heat wave
Heat wave
Heat wave
Heat wave
