I Need A Man Lyrics - Manhattan Transfer

Roof over my head, keep out the rain 

Food on the table, I can't complain 

When I had no one, you reached out your hand 

I want what you give me, but I need a man 

We'll not go hungry, we'll never be cold 

Long as we have each other to hold 

I do without most things, I get by somehow 

But I need a man, and I need him now 

Nobody special, just the usual kind 

Works hard all day and comes home to unwind 

I don't care what he looks like if he's just my own 

But I know I'll go crazy one more night, more night, one more night alone 

Don't need no lectures on what's right for me 

Wake up each morning, I know what I see 

No one's beside me, can't you understand 

From so deep inside me, I need a man
