"Come and Get Your Love" is a song by the American rock band Redbone.[4] The song was originally released as a promo track under the name "Hail" and was later featured on their fifth album, Wovoka (1973), under its current name. The song was released as the album's first single the following year. Written and produced by band members Pat and Lolly Vegas, it is one of the band's most successful singles. It made them the first Native American band to reach the top five on the Billboard Hot 100, reaching number five.[5] The song later appeared on many "greatest hits" albums released by the band, as well as on numerous compilation albums of the 1970s. A cutout style-animated music video was released in 2020.[6]

The single cut is significantly shorter, with the album version featuring an introductory slow part, plus a longer repeated coda. Most radio stations rarely play the latter. The song features a prominent part for electric sitar. A shorter DJ re-service edit of the single version is mainly distinguished by a lead vocal.
