I Need Love

You got'ta have lead in your pencil , baby, or it won't write

You got'ta have flint in your lighter, baby, or it won't light

You got'ta have the sunshine to make the flower grow

You got'ta put gas in your car, baby, or it won't go

But when I need some satisfaction

You call on me for a quick reaction

And I need love (I need love)

I got'ta have love, Ow! Ow! Ow!

You got'ta have blades in your razor, baby, or you can't shave

You got'ta have money in the bank, baby, or you can't save

You got'ta have wings on an airplane, or it won't fly

You got'ta have tears in your eyes, baby, or you can't cry

But when I need some satisfaction

You call on me for a quick reaction

And I need love (I need love)

I got'ta have love, Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!

You got'ta have glue on the envelope, or you can't seal it

You got'ta have beat in the music, baby, or you can't feel it

You got'ta have numbers on the telephone, or you can't dial it

You got'ta have rollers in your hair, baby, or you can't style it

But when I need some satisfaction

You call on me for a quick reaction

And I need love (I need love)

I got'ta have love

I need love, baby, baby, baby (I need love)

Got'ta, got'ta, got'ta (I need love)

Move ya, baby (I need love)

Got'ta have it, baby (I need love)

Doncha know I need it, baby (I need love)

Love, love to love, girl (I need love)

Baby, doncha know (I need love)

Baby
