*********************************** Ain't no need to worry There ain't no use to cry 'Cause I'll be comin' home soon To keep you satisfied You know I get so lonely That I feel I can't go on And it feels so good inside, babe Just to call you on the telephone, I said
Ooh baby, I love you What more can I say? Ooh baby, I need you I miss you more every day
I woke up early this mornin' And the sun came shining down And it found me wishin' and hopin' Mama you could be around But you know I need you More than the air I breathe And I guess I'm just tryin' to tell you, woman Oh, what you mean to me, yeah yeah
Ooh baby, I love you What more can I say? Ooh baby, I need you I miss you more every day
I'm tryin' to tell you I love you In each and every way I'm tryin' to tell you I need you Much more than a piece of lay
Ooh baby I love you What more can I say Oh baby I need your sweet lovin' I miss you more, more every day Oh baby I love you Baby, bay I need you
