When i was the age of three
My dear mother had a
Little talk with me


She said a woman
Can be a good little thing

But, son, she mean a
Whole world to men


If i hadn't loved
Your daddy this way
He wouldn't be the

Big man he is today

(chorus)

Don't you know
A man needs a woman
A man got to have a woman

To carry on (to carry on)
To carry on


Just like the fish needs the ocean
Just like rough hand need a little lotion
Like the windows needs pane

Like the highway needs two lane

(chorus)


Just like a vampire needs blood
Like a dead dog need them bugs

Just like the darkness needs the light
Just like the fisherman, he needs
He needs a little bite now, oh, yeah


(chorus)


Just like a boxer need gloves
Just like me, i need a little love
Like the soldier needs a gun...
