I got this song stuck in my mind today and it refuses to leave; I do like this song quite a bit, so I will add it to my list.
This is actually written by Arlester "Dyke" Christian and recorded by his band Dyke & the Blazers the same year that Wilson Pickett recorded his cover of it. However, it was Wilson Pickett's version that became the hit. One of the main hooks in this song is that awesome infectious bass line, which is probably one of the main reasons that it is stuck in my mind.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
