"Breakfast in Bed" is a soul–R&B song written by Muscle Shoals songwriters Eddie Hinton and Donnie Fritts for Dusty Springfield.
It takes a knowing spin on the line "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me", the title of a song that had previously been a number one hit for her in the UK.
After being released on her 1969 album Dusty in Memphis, it was recorded and popularized the same year by Baby Washington.
Harry J produced three reggae versions in 1972, by Lorna Bennett, Scotty, and Bongo Herman.
In the United States, the song reached number four on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart.
