I need you, babe
Yeah, you know it's true
I need a woman
That won't play me for no fool

Yeah child sometimes I cry for you
Yeah babe I'm gonna cry for you
A man needs a woman
To tell his troubles to
I swear don't you know
Babe yes it's you
When things go wrong
Yeah, baby
Yeah child I cry for you
Don't you know I love you baby? I'm gonna cry for you
You got a good woman
I want you to take her everywhere you go
Please treat her kinda gentle
Babe just so she'll know
When things go wrong
