William Bell – I Need You Woman lyrics

[Intro]
I need you
I need you
I need you honey child
I'm coming back home to my baby

[Verse 1: William Bell]
Baby, I'm coming home, I'm tired of doing you wrong
I know I shouldn't have left, just couldn't help myself
I'm gonna make it up to you, can't wait to see your face
So, tell that other guy there to get on outta my place

[Chorus: William Bell]
Oh, I need you woman
I need you baby doll (Yes I do, baby doll)
I need you woman
I want you honey child (Yes, I do, honey child)

[Refrain]
I need you
I need you
I need you honey child

[Verse 2: Carla Thomas]
You're comin' back to me, this time I hope it lasts
No more horsin' around, no more puttin' me down
Don't you waste no time, my love is here to stay
I'll tell that other guy there to pack it up today

[Chorus: Carla Thomas]
'Cause I need you baby
Oh, I want you honey child (Want you honey child)
Need you baby
Sure wanna be your honey child (Need you honey child)

[Refrain]
I need you honey child

[Bridge]
Bring it on back
Bring it on back
Bring it on back
Bring it on back

[Verse 3: William Bell and Carla Thomas]
I'm leavin' here tonight, gonna change my way of life
Wanna do all I can to show I'm a better man
First thing in the morning you better knock on my door
'Cause I'm gonna tell that other fella don't want him 'round no more"

[Outro: William Bell and Carla Thomas]
I need you baby, got to have you honey child
I need you darling, got have you honey child
I need you woman, I want you honey child
I need you woman, yes, I need you honey child
