Hot damn i’m down on my knees
I want a love someone please me
Come on baby I want to be in love again
Lonely nights give me the blues
I’ve had enough of loving and losing
Come on baby and hit me like a hurricane
Every man needs a woman
Every woman needs man

Do my best to try to make you understand

Now every man needs a woman
Every woman needs man
Do my best to try to make you understand

Bad luck don’t get in my way
Pretty woman you can save me yeah
Come on baby and take me up to heaven above
Treat me right give me a chance
I’m looking for a sweet romance
Come on baby and hit me like a hurricane

Now every man needs a woman
Every woman needs man
Do my best to try to make you understand

I want a love someone please me
Come on baby I want to be in love again
Lonely nights give me the blues

Now every man needs a woman
Every woman needs man
Do my best to try to make you understand
