The History (from princevault.com):
Head is the sixth track on Prince's third album Dirty Mind, and, in late 1980, Head was released as the album's second single (only available in the Philippines; in the USA it was released only on a promo acting more as an album sampler than a promo for this particular song).

While specific recording dates are not known, the album sessions took place from May to June 1980, in Prince's North Arm Drive Home Studio in Orono, Minnesota (credited as "Somewhere in Uptown"), and completed in June 1980 at Hollywood Sound Recorders in Los Angeles, California.

The song introduced new band member Lisa Coleman who contributed a spoken word segment after Gayle Chapman objected to the song's lyrics and left the band.

Some of the lyrics are seemingly inspired by Darlene, a girl from San Francisco, CA that Prince was seeing and the protagonist for the song Darlene Marie. At the time they first met in September 1978, she was engaged to be married. The line " ...when I met you, baby, you were on your way to be wed" was about, or inspired by her.

The Lyrics:
I remember when I met you, baby
You were on you're way to be wed
You were such a sexy thing
I loved the way you walked, the things you said
And I was so nonchalant, I didn't want you to be misled
But I've gotta have you, baby, got to have you in my bed
And you said
"But I just a virgin and I'm on my way to be wed
But you're such a hunk, so full of spunk, I'll give you Head
Till you're burning up
Head
Till you get enough
Head
Till your love is red
Head
Love you til you're dead
You know you're good, girl
I think you like to go down
You wouldn't have stopped but I, I came on your wedding gown
And you said, "I must confess I want to get undressed and go to bed"
With that I jammed, you fool you married me instead
Now morning, noon, and night I give you head
Till you're burning up
Head
Till you get enough
Head
Till your love is red
Head
Love you til you're dead
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Head
Head
Head
Head
Head
Till you're burning up
Head
Till you get enough
Head
Till your love is red
Head
Love you til you're dead
Head
Head
Head (oh, baby, no)
Head
Head (oh)
Head
Head (you said I could)
Head
Head
