Lyrics
(beginning sample from John Lee Hooker´s Boom Boom Boom)
CHORUS
Do you wanna have somebody
Body and soul ? soul ? gotta let it go - go
Have somebody to love
(What you want is what he?s got ? and he?s got a lot of that)
Don?t you wanna have somebody
Ain?t gonna stop ? stop ? shake it till you drop - drop
Have somebody to love
VERSE 1
I guess you know who, you know who - he?s at it again
SMS?ing me, callin? - checkin? me, o yea
Man, he been makin? like he know-ahh (.) windin? me up an? all
He went ?d?you wanna follow me sexy, be my girl an? all?
VERSE 2
Say wha?chu like but I think know-ahh
I think it?s all for show-ahh
Say wha?chu like but I?m gonna go so - slow
He said he can tell what it is I?m missin?
My big (.) lips need kissin?
He said I?m so intelligent ? aww won?t you say-ahh that again
CHORUS
Do you wanna have somebody
Body and soul ? soul ? gotta let it go - go
Have somebody
To love
(What you want is what he?s got ? and he?s got a lot of that)
Don?t you wanna have somebody
Ain?t gonna stop ? stop ? shake it till you drop - drop
Have somebody
To love
VERSE 3
People stop to tell me I?m crazy
Say whatcha want - whatcha will
Say whatcha gotta say - then be still
I don?t know if my thinkin?s hazy
I do what I like ? and I do it when I want
Act like I mind - when I really don?t
VERSE 4
But I know
When the time is right - When the feelin?s high
I listen to my heart and everything is all right
And I know - What I gotta do
When I feel my heart - do syncopated beats for you
CHORUS ADLIBS
Everybody gotta have somebody
Everybody gotta have someone to love
Aha yea mm
Everybody gotta have a little bit of honey
Everybody´s gotta reach out for love
Yea
It can be you ? it can be me
It can be you and me - and you and I
And everything will be just fine
And you and me, yea you and I
Are you the one who could be mine
Mine mine mine
