I was just alone and mad
With a suitcase in my hand
Part of the traveling band on the road
(And I was always away from you)
I never needed anyone
My music, it was my fun
But I woke up late at night to regret it
Oh-oh-oh
We all need love, I swear it's true
All God's children, me and you
We all need love, I swear it's true
All God's children, me and you
Brother, brother jump your head
Sister, stand up stand by your man
And let him know that you understand, you really need him
(I've always needed you, yes I do)
And the sun will shine on you
If your love can pull on through
Life's a precious gift, my man
Don't waste it away now
We all need love, I swear it's true
All God's children, me and you
We all need love, I swear it's true
All God's children, me and you, oh yeah
There's no way, no thing in life to replace it
Ain't enough around so you better not waste it
There's no stronger force in life, it's true
So reach out, make a little
Love, I swear it's true
All the children, me and you
We all need love, I swear it's true (I need it, you need it)
Everybody, everybody needs a little love, it's true
We all need love, I swear it's true, oh yeah
Give me just a little bit of love, yeah
We all need love, I swear it's true
All the people, me and you, oooh-oooh-oooh
There's no way, no thing in life to replace it
Ain't enough around so you better not waste it
There's no stronger force in life, it's true
So reach out, make a little
Love, I swear it's true
We all need love, I swear it's true
We all need love
I swear it's true
We all need love, I swear it's true (I need it, you need it)
Everybody, everybody needs a little love, it's true
We all need love, I swear it's true, oh yeah
Give me just a little bit of love, yeah
