Do the things that keep a smile on her face

Say the things that make her feel better every day

Man you gotta stay on your p's and q's

If you don't, the woman you could easily lose

Oh you, oh you had a love and you lost her

And no one can help you share the pain that it cost you

Oh a woman's gotta have it I believe

She's gotta know that she's needed around

When you kiss her you gotta make her feel it every time, boy

She got to know that she's not walking on shaky ground

Yeah, yeah

Think it over, think it over

Think it over my brothers

Don't take for granted the smile on her face

Check a little bit closer, you might find a tear trace

Maybe the girl might never say a mumblin' word

But you've got to make sure that her voice is heard

Oh you had a love, a true love and you lost her

Now you're suffering all this pain that love cost you

Oh a woman's gotta have it I believe

She's gotta know that she's needed around

When you kiss her you gotta make her feel it every time, boy

She got to know that she's not walking on shaky ground

Yeah, yeah

So if you've got a love and you want to keep her

You've got to give her what she wants when she wants it

Where she wants it and how she wants it

And every time she feels she needs it

What I'm trying to say boy

A woman's gotta have it

What I'm trying to say

A woman's gotta have it

Yeah
