Baby I'm-a want you

Baby I'm-a need you

You're the only one I care enough to hurt about

Maybe I'm-a crazy

But I just can't live without

your lovin' and affection

Givin' me direction

Like a guiding light to help me through a darkest hour

Lately I'm a-prayin'

That you'll always be a-stayin' beside me

Used to be my life was just emotions passing by

Feeling all the while and never really knowing why

Lately I'm a-prayin'

That you'll always be a-stayin' beside me.

Used to be my life was just emotions passing by

Then you came along and made me laugh and made me cry

You taught me why

Baby I'm-a want you

Baby I'm-a need you

Oh, it took so long to find you, baby

Baby I'm-a want you

Baby I'm-a need you
