Intro: / / (3x)
A woman needs love (just like you do... hoo)
Don t kid yourself into (thinkin that she don t)
She can fool around (just like you do... hoo)
Unless you give her all the (lovin she wants)
Don t make the mistake
Of thinkin old fashioned (ooh, ooh)
Times have changed from yesterday
No longer will
Those old double standards (ooh, ooh)
Be accepted by the women of today
So when you think you re foolin her
She just might be foolin you
Remember, if you can do it... she can too
Because a woman needs love (just like you do... hey)
Don t kid yourself into (thinkin that she don t)
She can fool around (just like you do... hoo)
Unless you give her all the (lovin she wants)
When her eyes
Are beggin for affection (ooh, ooh)
Don t put her off, don t make her wait
Don t try to give her
That worn out excuse (ooh, ooh)
About being tired and workin late
{I tell you} one day you ll come home
Early from work (home from work)
Open up the door and get your feelings hurt
Because she needs it, yeah (just like you do... hoo)
A woman s got to have it, whoa, yeah (just like you)
And if you re smart, mmm (just like you do... hoo)
Just stop foolin around, hey, hey ( cos she will too)
Oh, oh...
(Just like you do... hoo)
(Thinkin that she don t, hoo-ooo)
(Just like you do... hoo)

Returned up the hill
