Well, I was feeling so bad
I asked my family doctor about what I had
I said "Doctor, Doctor, Mister M.D
Can you tell me what's ailing me?"
And he said "Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah"
Yes he did, "What I need, what I need, OW! (Good lovin')
What I need is lovin' (Good lovin')
Early in the morning, baby (Good lovin')
Late in the evening one more time (Good lovin')
Come on, baby, squeeze me tight
Don't you want your daddy just to be alright?
I said "Baby, baby, that's for sure (Baby)
I've got the fever (Baby), you got the cure" (Baby)
And she said "Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah"
Yes she did, "What I need, what I need, OW! (Good lovin')
What I need is lovin' (Good lovin')
Early in the morning sometimes (Good lovin')
Late in the evening some more time" (Good lovin')
What I need
What I need is a little bit of good ol' lovin'
What I need is a little bit of good ol' lovin'
Been a while since I had any of the stuff
Been a while since I had some
I really wanna get it in the morning
Sometime in the afternoon
'Round about the midnight hour, you know what I need soon
I guess I got to get some, I got to get some now
Got to get some, anyhow I can find a way
Anyway I
Early in the morning, around the time the day is dawning
I get a longing sometimes for some good ol' lovin'
I ask my baby, "Just reach on over, reach on over my left shoulder"
I touch my baby and that's when she said "Mama, turn on over
Mama, mama, mama, now, now, now turn on over"
I got to have it
I could come home just after a four day creep
And all drinking and gambling and I need my sleep
Drinking and gamblingI walk in the door, all I wanna do
Lay down and take my rest, yes I do
So I climb up in the bed
I done laid myself on down
Fit to take my rest
That's all I got to do
Daylight comin' through the window
Daylight comin' through the crack in the window pane
And all I can do is think about sleepin'
Just get myself a little rest
Next thing I know
My lady, she come up in the room
Say, she say daddy
She say daddy, come on now, why don't you get on up?
I said baby I'm tryin' to sleep and take my rest
I get you to do things
Get my up in just a taste
She asked me, daddy, she say
Just one more time before you go to sleep, now
She said daddy, come on, I wanna, I wanna treat you just right
And there was nothin', nothin' I could do about it
Can't get around it, now, can't get over it
You can't get through it, you just can't get under
You just got to get on it
So I tell my baby, I say
Raise on up now, baby
Turn on over
Raise on up, child
Get your left shoulder, just get on
The business now
Let's get down to business
That's what y'all want
Let's start out easy
Start out easy and slow
You ain't got no big hurry
You got all the time you need
You just start on slip and slide
It's kinda easy like
You can start out just strollin'
Just bring it up to a walkin' pace
Slip a little grease in the transmission
You can shift gears just a little while
Bring it on up just a little high
'Cause I'm fit to do a little greasin'
I want a little pleasin'
Want a little greasin'
Want a little pleasin'
Shift your gears, mama
That's all I need
Come on, shift your gears, baby
That's all I got to have, now
I feel just like a real groundhog and I don't wanna mess around
Slap a little more grease to it
Shift your gears one more time
No, no, no, not yet, baby
Ten times overdrive
Hold to that long road home
Just keep it at a nice and easy smooth on drive
Yes, I know what you got, alright
Pop it is, ain't it, sonKeep on cruising, easy and slow now, yes
You ain't got to worry about me leaving without these switches, baby
I got a full tank of gas
Full tank, gears in overdrive
I got enough grease in it to keep lots of women alive
So you ain't got to worry about going too fast
'Cause we got all night long, yes, yes
Now ease on up, just a little now
I know you got a double speed rear end, ha
You just wait 'til I hit it
Shift on, one time
That's better now, alright
Just a little, a little while
Now here come a long stretch now
It's a long straightaway, uh-huh
And I can hear a voice echo
Up and down the hall
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know we got all night long
We got all night long, all night long
All night long now, all night long
All night long now, mama, all night long
Don't worry about me leaving now, baby
I got plenty of gas
If you think I'm gonna slow, well, I got the power to pass
Come on, child, now do some switching
Shift them gears
I want a little bit of connection in my ears
Alright
Just ease on up
Yes
You speed up and the needle's floating right around sixty-nine
Just bringin' on a visitation
I want to ask my baby one thing
I asked her please, mama
Let me get me, let me get me
Let me get me up in your saddle
Let me get me in your saddle and ride
I wanna jump in your saddle and ride
I wanna jump in your saddle and ride
Jump in your saddle and ride now
Jump in your saddle and ride
Stay in your saddle, come on, help me, baby, alright
Push it up just a taste now
That's good, baby
Raise it on up just a little bit higher
Raise it on up a little higher
Raise it up now, baby, 'til your legs get long and tall
Raise it up now, baby, 'til your legs up against the wall
Your legs up against the wall, that's what I want
Your legs up against the wall
Your legs up against the wall now, mama
Up against the wall, yeah
Shift on up
Shift on up
Shift on up, alright
What else can I do, baby?
What else can I do?
She cut the hem, I wave my noose
I just can't back off that kind of ride, uh-uh
That just goes to show you
Goes to show you a woman is a girl and a half a man
She get him to do things that he don't understand
Bring out the power
I was feeling so bad
I asked my family doctor about what I had
I said, "Doctor (Doctor), Mister M.D. (Doctor)
Can you tell me (Doctor), what's ailing me?" (Doctor)
And he said (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
, Yes, he did (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
All I need, all I need, OW (Good lovin')
All I need is lovin' (Good lovin')
Early in the morning, baby (Good lovin')
Late in the evening one more time (Good lovin')
Come on, baby, squeeze me tight
Don't you want your daddy just to be alright?
I said baby (Baby), that's for sure (Baby)
I've got the fever (Baby), you got the cure (Baby)
And she said (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
, Yes, she did (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
All I need, all I need, OW (Good lovin')
All I need is lovin' (Good lovin')
Early in the morning, baby (Good lovin')
Late in the evening one more time (Good lovin')
Got to get it, just a little more breezy
