I NEED YOU Songtext
von Jon Batiste

We done a lot of living
We working overtime
Don′t need another million
You got that goldmine
I love the way you're livin′
'Cause you so genuine
You got that something special
Didn't you know?
I just need you, you, you

Met you when I was a lil′ nappy head boy
And I never put down my alto saxophone, yeah
Buckjumpin′ down on the boulevard
I couldn't wait to blow my own horn (woo!)
It ain′t wrong for you to play along
Playing this song 'til you die, come on, come on

In this world with a lot of problems
All we need is a little loving
Thank you, thank you, oh, you make me
Thank you, thank you for your love


We done a lot of living
We working overtime
Don′t need another million
You got that goldmine
I love the way you're livin′ (hey)
'Cause you're so genuine (genuine)
You got that something special
Didn′t you know?
I just need you, you, you (come on, now!)

Met you when I was a lil′ country boy
And I never put down that pork chop and salt
Then we fell in love on the boulevard
If you was Jenny, I guess I was Forrest (run!)
Nah, it ain't wrong for you to sing along
Singing this song ′til you die

In this world with a lot of problems
All we need is a little loving
Thank you, thank you, oh, you make me
Thank you, thank you for your love

(Hey!)
(Play that thang!)
(You don't know)
(That′s alright!)


We done a lot of living (whole lotta)
We working overtime (overtime)
Don't need another million
You got that goldmine (goldmine)
I love the way you′re livin'
'Cause you′re so genuine (genuine)
You got that something special
Didn′t you know?
I just need you, you, you

I need you, you, you, you, you, you, you
