"Love Her Madly" is a song by The Doors, which was released in March 1971. Composed by guitarist Robby Krieger, it served as the lead single from L.A. Woman, their final album with frontman Jim Morrison. Session musician and Elvis Presley TCB Band touring member Jerry Scheff, played bass guitar on the song. "Love Her Madly" became one of the highest charting hits for The Doors. It peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and reached No. 3 in Canada.

In 2000, Krieger, John Densmore, and Ray Manzarek recorded a new version of "Love Her Madly" with Bo Diddley for the Doors tribute album Stoned Immaculate.

The song was used in the 1994 period film Forrest Gump.

The song was covered by pianist George Winston on his album Night Divides the Day - The Music of the Doors.

The song was also covered in 2001, in a reggae/ska style, by The Long Beach Dub Allstars, for their second album Wonders of the world

Love Her Madly

by: The Doors

LOVE HER MADLY
The Doors
Don't ya love her madly
Don't ya need her badly
Don't ya love her ways
Tell me what you say
Don't ya love her madly
Wanna be her daddy
Don't ya love her face
Don't ya love her as she's walkin' out the door
Like she did one thousand times before
Don't ya love her ways
Tell me what you say
Don't ya love her as she's walkin' out the door
All your love
All your love
All your love
All your love
All your love is gone
So sing a lonely song
Of a deep blue dream
Seven horses seem to be on the mark
Yeah, don't you love her
Don't you love her as she's walkin' out the door
All your love
All your love
All your love
Yeah, all your love is gone
So sing a lonely song
Of a deep blue dream
Seven horses seem to be on the mark
Well, don't ya love her madly
Don't ya love her madly
Don't ya love her madly
