A WOMAN NEEDS LOVE
RAY PARKER JR.
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Mmm-mmm-mmm
A woman needs love (just like you do, hoo)
Don't kid yourself into thinkin' that she don't
She can fool around (just like you do, hoo)
Unless you give her all the lovin' she wants
Don't make the mistake of thinkin' old fashioned (ooh-ooh)
Times have changed from yesterday
No longer will those old double standards (ooh-ooh)
Be accepted by the women of today
So when you think you're foolin' her
She just might be foolin' you
Remember, if you can do it
She can too
Because a woman needs love (just like you do, hoo)
Hey, don't kid yourself into thinking that she don't
She can fool around (just like you do, hoo)
Unless you give her all the lovin' she wants
When her eyes are beggin' for affection (ooh-ooh)
Don't put her off, don't make her wait
And don't try to give her that worn out excuse (ooh-ooh)
About being tired and working late
I tell ya
One day you'll come home
Early from work (home from work)
Open up the door and get your feelings hurt
Because she needs it, yeah (just like you do, hoo)
A woman's got to have it whoa, yeah (just like you)
And if you're smart, mmm (just like you do)
You better stop fooling around, hey, hey
'Cause she will, too, oh
Just like you do, hoo
Thinking that she don't, ooh-ooh
Just like you do, hoo
Now, an example to you (ooh-ooh)
Is by the time poor Jack returned up the hill
Somebody else had been loving Jill
A woman needs love (just like you do, hoo)
Hey, don't kid yourself into thinking that she don't
She can fool around, yeah (just like you do, hoo)
She will fool around, so
You better take out some insurance
And be sure she won't give her that love
Mmm, yeah (just like you do, hoo)
That sweet, sweet love, she wants it, just like you
'Cause she can fool around (just like you do, hoo)
I tell ya, she will fool around
With you or without you
Just like you do
A woman needs love (just like you do, hoo)
Hey, don't kid yourself into thinking that she don't (ooh-ooh)
She can fool around (just like you do, hoo)
A woman needs it, just like you
