Somebody To Love You - Delbert McClinton, Glen Clark

You need a job so you can make some money

You need a nice warm place to stay

A sense of humor 'cause life is funny

A big stick to keep the wolf away

You need a car with good tires on it The right place to eat barbecue

A heavy duty set of jumper cables

And no holes in you walkin' shoes

The main thing you’re gonna find you need

Is a fertile place to plant your seed, boy

You got to find somebody to love you

Someone to be there for you night and day

Someone to share it with and be part of you

Love ain’t no good 'til you give it away

You got to give it away

I recommend you get some life insurance

And be prepared to dial 911

Pay close attention to your high blood pressure

And stay away from the man with the gun

You need a reason to get up in the mornin'

Make sure your clock has got a snooze control

Be sure you got a place to run for cover

'Cause overnight things can sure get cold

You’re gonna find that sooner or later

You need a common denominator

You got to find somebody to love you

Someone to be there for you night and day

Someone to share it with and be part of you

Love ain’t no good 'til you give it away

You got to give it away
