Acapella:          I need music

                        So just let it play

            And I need someone good to be my wife

                        I need love

                        So send yours my way

            That’s what I need to get through this life

 

                        (Electric guitar playing chorus)

 

Spoken: Listen here: (Full Accompaniment in)

 

I’ve been around long enough to know

That whatever you possess can easily go

But there are some things that last long as you

And you can always have them just by being true

Tell me do you want to live forever?

Well the only way is to treat each person better

But do not put yourself out of your way

Cause you got to please you too each and every day

Now some may disagree but I know many won’t

You just don’t go where the sign says don’t   And

 

I need music

                        So just let it play

            And I need someone good to be my wife

                        I need love

                        So send yours my way

            That’s what I need to get through this life

 

Every little step that someone must make

One step closer to open Heaven’s gate

No life is not something you’ll learn in school

But just as well we need to live by rules

I’m not someone who’s all that secure

But there’s still something of which I’m sure

 

Bridge:

 

Everybody’s got their own little shelter

From all of life’s strains and pressure

There are millions of ways I won’t list

Some don’t approve all this

Some take drugs and all the alcohol

Some just want to be all alone

Some just need somebody there

While some settle for the telephone

Some play sports or just party

Some will stay in church all day

Well everybody has got their own means

To get through this life some way

Well as for me I need music

In any way that I can use it

That’s if there ain’t a loving company

For love is the number one thing for me

Ohhh, oh oh, ohhhh

            That’s what I need to get through this life

 

I need music
