A Man Needs a Woman Songtext
von James Carr

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

Don′t you know a man needs a woman?
Oh, 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


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 a vampire needs blood
Like a dead dog need them bugs
Just like the darkness needs the little light
Just like the fisherman, he needs
He needs a little bite now, oh, yeah

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