[Verse 1]
People like you and I always hurt one another
Until there's nothing left to hurt no more
You and I will always hear different drummers
You just go your way, I'll go mine

You and I always take from each other
Until there's nothing left to give no more
You and I are just like lightning and thunder
We never let the sun just shine

[Chorus]
I need some old-time reloving
You know I need it so bad
Gimme some old-time reloving
Just like my old daddy always had

[Verse 2]
(Ba ba ba - ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba - ba ba)
(Ba ba ba ba doo da do'n'ba doo'n'doo ba)
You and I will always hear different drummers
You just go your way, I'll go mine

[Chorus]
I need some old-time reloving
You know I need it so bad
Gimme some old-time reloving
Just like my old daddy said he had
[Chorus]
I need some old-time reloving
You know I need it so bad
Gimme some old-time reloving
Just like my old daddy always had

[Outro]
Just like my old mummy always had
Just like my old sister said she had
What did she have?
