On the dark side of the street

Just about midnight on the way

To the bright side when she calls

She turned out the light

I'm just a beginner when it comes

>From a number on the wall



All God's children need someone to love

And you know I found mine

I've been waiting for the one

After her you will see me gone

I got a question answered anyway

She turned out to be a lesson in love

A lesson in love



Bad girls cross the line

Get it for nothing anytime

I am a victim of the blues

She don't know the truth

Nobody told her how to cry

She got a back against the wall



All God's children need someone to love

And you know , baby , you know I found mine

She can show me I'm the one

After me she'll be on the run

And lightning strikes in my bedroom

The satisfaction was to me a lesson in love

If you give your love for the first time

A lesson in love

You could learn from me

It's gonna be

All God's children need someone to love

And you know , baby , you know I found mine

She can show me I'm the one

After me she'll be on the run

And lightning strikes in my bedroom

The satisfaction was to me a lesson in love

If you give your love for the first time

A lesson in love

You could learn from me

It's gonna be

A lesson in love

There are ways and means for your pleasure

A lesson in love

Now just you wait and see

It's gonna be

A lesson in love

If you give your love for the first time

A lesson in love

You could learn from me

A lesson in love



There are ways and means .. (repeat and fade out)
