Woman's Gotta Have It

Fellas, I wonder, would you mind if I talk to you a minute?

You know, sometimes we have our tendencies

Or should I say, we forget

What a woman needs every now and then

That is, if you wanna keep your thing together

Listen to me now

Do the things that keeps a smile on her face

Say the things that make her feel better every day

Man, you got to stay on your Ps and Qs

If you don't, the woman, you can easily lose, oh-oh-oh

I had a love, oh, and I lost her

And no one can help me share the pain that she caused me

A woman's got to have it, I believe

She's got to know that she's needed around

When you kiss her, you got to make her feel it, every time, boy

She wants to know that she's not walking on shaky ground

Oh, yeah

Think it over

Think it over, my brother

Don't take for granted the smile on her face

Check a little bit closer, you might find a tear trace

Maybe the girl might never say a mumbling word

But you gotta make sure that her voice is heard

Oh, I had a love, a true love and I lost it

I'm suffering all this pain that that love cost me, oh

A woman's got to have it, you've got to give it to her

She's got to know that she's needed around

When you kiss her, you gotta make her feel it

She wanna know that she's not walking on shaky ground

Yeah, oh

So if you got a love and you wanna keep her

You've got to give her what she wants when she wants it

Where she wants it

And how she wants it

Every doggone time she feels she needs it

What I'm tryna say (What you tryna say, boy?)

A woman's gotta have it, hey, hey, hey

A woman's gotta have it
