You Need Me Baby Lyrics

He was the best marble shooter
That lived in the whole darn town
He never played in a football game
Where he scored under five touchdowns
No, no

He could run the 100-yard dash
In nine-five baby, yeah
Once a house caught on fire
And he went in and saved
All seven people's lives

(Chorus)
He was the one most likely to succeed
But a room full of trophies and silvers ain't what you need, no
You need yourself a man, girl

You need me baby
You need me baby

He was given the key to the city
When he left home goin' to college
Now he already had an A+ average but
He felt that he needed a bit more knowledge, ya

People were at the train station
Some cryin', and some brought him lunch
And I watched the ones that were cryin'
And baby you were right in the middle of the bunch

(Chorus)
He was the one most likely to succeed
But a room full of trophies and silvers ain't what you need, no You need yourself a man, girl

I think you need me

Oh! I'm just a man that loves children
Oh baby, you told me that you love children too
Didn't you baby
Oh, huh

Now I know I can't run the 100-yard dash as fast as he can, baby
But I know I can provide for you
And four or five children too, yeah

Now he ain't ever comin' back for you baby
You read what the paper said
He called this a little one-horse town
Full of jive people, huh
I think it's success goin' to his head

Now he didn't even think to write you a bitty postcard, baby
Woo-hoo, try to see through it baby
And stop trying to be so hard

Now listen
I know he was the one most likely to succeed
But listen baby
A man full of them high-follutin' ideas isn't what you need, no
It's just a man, baby
I'm putting my vote in for me
Ow!

You need me baby
I'm gonna vote for myself baby
