Lyrics

Whoa, I need a man to love me
Oh, don't you understand me, baby ?
Why, I need a man to love
I want me someone to hold me when i, I call out for aid
Someone to be around me so I won't be afraid

Because it can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be this loneliness
Baby, surrounding me

No, no, know it just can't be
No it just can't be, oh lord
Oh baby baby baby it just can't be, no no no
No it just can't be, no
Whoa, it can't be
No it just can't be
Alright
Yeah!

Whoa, won't you let me hold you ?
Honey, just close your eyes
Whoa, won't you let me hold you, baby ?
Hey, hey, I want to just put my arms around ya, like the circles going 'round the sun
And let me, let me hold you daddy, I said, at least until the morning comes

Because it
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be this loneliness
Baby, surrounding me
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
No it just can't be, no
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, just can't be, no
No it just can't be no more
Whoa, it can't be
No it just can't be
Alright, go on play it!

Hey!
Yeah, hey!

Whoa, I need a man to love me
Oh, can't you help me, please
Why, lord, I need a man to love
Hey, I want me someone to hold me when I call out for aid
And someone to be around me so I won't be afraid

Because it
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be now
Can't be this loneliness
Baby, surrounding me

No, no, no, it just can't be
No it just can't be no more
Oh, daddy, daddy, daddy, it just can't be, no no no
No it just can't be
Whoa, honey it can't be
No it just can't be
