"She's the One" is a rhythm and blues song written by Hank Ballard and first recorded by his group The Midnighters. Originally issued on Federal Records as the B-side of their #1 R&B hit "Annie Had a Baby", it received an A-side release (Federal 12205) later the same year.

Ike & Tina Turner recorded a version of the song, retitled "He's the One" which was released as a single in 1964 and included on the 2000 compilation album The Kent Years.[1] Marva Whitney recorded a version of "He's the One", for her James Brown-produced 1969 album It's My Thing. Her version was released as a single the following year. Brown himself recorded the song around the same time, but his version remained unreleased until 1988, when it was issued as a single in the United Kingdom and charted #45 there. It also appeared on the compilation album Motherlode, released the same year.[2]
