Put A Little Love Lyrics - Lucky Dube

She stood outside 

In the middle of the night 

Looking so far away 

As far as she could see 

Where the sky meets the land 

Looking for answers 

Her life is falling apart 

Her marriage is on the rocks 

She thinks about her mother 

She thinks about her children 

She thinks about the church 

And everybody that thought 

They had it made in heaven 

Suddenly the comfort 

In the house don' t mean nothing 

All she needs is some loving 

In her life 

Oh God 

Chorus: 

Put a little love 

In my world 

In her mind 

The dream is still alive 

But if you ask me 

I can' t tell you right now 

It' s a losing battle 

Her mother told her 

About this time 

The vows she took 

Were a mere formality 

But in her life 

They became a reality 

And by the look of things 

She' s fighting a losing battle 

Joleen is about to take her man 

Why do bad things happen 

To good people? 

She thinks about her mother 

She thinks about her children 

She thinks about the church 

Suddenly the money in the house 

Don' t mean nothing 

All she needs is love 

Chorus: 

till fade
