The Jackson 5

Love Is The Thing You Need

(Love is the thing you need)

Ooh, I know a fortune teller

A very freaky fella

How 'bout you like me to tell ya

(Love is the thing you need) Let me say now

A family physician

Gave me a prescription

For a nice disposition

(Love is the thing you need)

So, when all your frustrations

Don't receive no medication

How bad you feel

Oh, it's just unreal

Oh, you can't get no satisfaction

When your mind is overacting

And you don't give your self the love you need

(So get on up)

And get down, down, down

With some good ol' funky, funky love

(Love is the thing you need) Fellas

(Love is the thing you need) Ah, hit it,

Make you feel so good

Make your body shake like crazy

Give yourself a get and go, yeah

(Love is the thing you need) The midnight hour

(Love is the thing you need) (Love is the thing you need)

(Love is the thing you need) Sing it again

(Love is the thing you need) (Love is the thing you need)

When that somebody finds you down (Love is the thing you need)

Love comes up from underground (Love is the thing you need)

Oh, love (Oh, love)

Yeah, some people they don't know

That it's the only way to go

If you wanna live a happy, happy life yeah, yeah

Oh, there ain't no doubt about it

We just can't live without it

No we can't, no we can't

Sing it to me children

(Love is the thing you need) One more time, yeah

(Love is the thing you need) Sing it, yeah,

Once a day, twice a day, everyday

(Love is the thing you need) What you say now

Once a day, twice a day, good God, everyday

(Love is the thing you need) You gotta, gotta have love

You gotta, gotta have love

You gotta, gotta have love

Y'all know what I'm talkin' about (Love is the thing you need)

You gotta, gotta have love

You gotta, gotta have love

You gotta, gotta have love (Love is the thing you need)

Don't you stop, don't you stop
