|
Oh oh oh (A woman's gotta have it)
|
(A woman's gotta have it)
|
Do the things that keep a smile on her face
|
Say the words that make her feel better every day
|
U betcha better keep on your P's and Q's
|
If U don't, your woman U could easily lose
|
|
Oh, I had love, a true love and I lost it
|
And no one seems 2 understand about the pain that it cost me
|
A woman's gotta have it, I believe
|
She's got 2 know that she's needed around
|
When U kiss her, U got 2 make her feel it
|
She wants 2 know that she's not walking on shaky ground
|
When U miss her, U got 2 be 4-realin'
|
Make her know that she's needed around
|
|
Don't take 4 granted the smile upon her face
|
Check a little bit closer, U might find a tear trace
|
Maybe the little girl never said a mufflin' word
|
But she's got 2 know that her voice is heard
|
|
Oh, I had love, a true love and I lost it
|
And no one seems 2 understand about the pain that it cost me
|
A woman's gotta have it, I believe that I should know
|
She's got 2 know that she's needed around
|
When U kiss her, U got 2 make her feel it
|
She wants 2 know that she's not walking on shaky ground
|
When U miss her, U got 2 be 4-realin'
|
Make her know that she's needed around
|
|
Oh, I had love, a true love and I lost it
|
Now I'm sufferin' all this pain that the true love cost me
|
A woman's gotta have it, I believe that I should know
|
She's got 2 know that she's needed around
|
When U kiss her, U got 2 make her feel it
|
She wants 2 know that she's not walking on shaky ground
|
When U miss her, U got 2 be 4-realin'
|
Make her know that she's needed around
|
|
A woman's gotta have it (A woman's gotta have it) {repeat to fade}
