Hurt Me (Deborah Allen song)

The song was written by Deborah Allen along with Rafe Van Hoy and Bobby Braddock. It was recorded by Allen for her fifth studio album, All That I Am (1994). The song was also produced by Allen alongside James Stroud. ==LeAnn Rimes version==

On July 9, 1996, American country singer LeAnn Rimes would release a cover of the song on her debut album Blue through Curb Records before releasing the song as her second single from the album on August 3, 1996. Unlike Rimes' previous single, the song was not a huge hit, only peaking at number 43 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. In Canada, the song peaked at 35 and 89 in Australia. Critical response Larry Flick of Billboard wrote a positive review about the song stating that "The song is great, and one of the best things about the record is that father Wilbur Rimes' production keeps the focal point on the song and LeAnn's incredible voice." • "Hurt Me" – 2:53 • "Cattle Call" (with Eddy Arnold) – 3:07 US promo CD single • "Hurt Me" – 2:53 Charts ==References==
