I Need Love

You got to have lead in your pencil, baby, or it won’t write
You got to have flint in your lighter, baby, or it won’t light
You got to have the sunshine to make the flower grow
You got to 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 to have love
You got to have blades in your razor, baby, or you can’t shave
You got to have money in the bank, baby, or you can’t save
You got to have wings on an airplane, or it won’t fly
You got to have tears in your eyes, baby, or you can’t cry
You got to have glue on the envelope, or you can’t seal it
You got to have beat in the music, baby, or you can’t feel it
You got to have numbers on the telephone, or you can’t dial it
You got to have rollers in your hair, baby, or you can’t style it
I need love, baby (I need love)
Got to, got to, got to (I need love)
Got to have it, baby (I need love)
Don’t you know I need it, baby (I need love)
