It ain't my brother, ain't my sister
But it's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
It ain't the Preacher, ain't the Deacon
But it's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
Well, it's me (It's me)
It's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
It's me (It's me)
It's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
When I get to singin'
Get to feelin' good
Standing in the need of love
Yeah, I could live it better
If I only would
Standing in the need of love
Woh, it's me (It's me)
It's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
It's me (It's me)
It's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
Get it!
Well, my ol' guitar makes me happy
But I'm all alone
Standing in the need of love
When I get to pickin'
It's the same old song
Standing in the need of love
Woh, it's me (It's me)
It's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
I said it's me (It's me)
It's me, Oh Lord
I'm standing in the need of love
Well, it's me, it's me
It's me, Oh Lord
And I'm standing in the need of love
Nobody but me, yes me
Dang me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
It's me (It's me)
It's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
I said it's me (It's me)
Well it's me, Oh Lord
And I'm I'm Standing in the need of love
Ho, it's me, it's me
It's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
Lookin at me (It's me)
Little me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
Well, it's me, it's me
It's me, Oh Lord
Standing in the need of love
It's me, it's me
It's me, Oh Lord
Standing in
