...and I Need To Be With Someone Tonight

Shine on your light

Lead me to your home

Lower your sights

Put away your comb

Though black babies are starving

And cows fed for the carving

All I know is I'm lonely

And I need to be with someone tonight

Lift up your chin

Let me see your eyes

Words are not my yen

My tongue is often tied

Though apartheid's a greater issue

I long to hear "I miss you"

All I know is I'm lonely

And I need to be with someone tonight

'Till men stop being intimidated

By women who have made it

All I know is I'm lonely

And I need to be with someone tonight
