[Intro]
Yeah, when I need a man, he-he

[Verse 1]
When I need somethin', somethin' strong
I can't hold on to, baby
I'm reachin' out for your, 'cause only you do
You fight the fight when I'm too weak
A shield around me, and when it's sentiments I need you
Take me where I wanna be

[Chorus]
When I need a man, I'm callin' you
When I need a man, strong and true
Baby, no one else will ever do
When I need a man, I need a man
Oooohhh...yeah, hoot-hoot! hoot-hoot!

[Verse 2]
You're like a hero when someone can use a hand
Come to the rescue of the week, like no one can
Bigger than life and lookin' good, yeah, it's clear to see
Who loves you, baby, well, I guess I must admit, it's me, me, whoa-whoa

[Chorus]
When I need a man, I'm callin' you
When I need a man, strong and true
Baby, no one else will ever do
When I need a man, I need a man
[Bridge]
Givin' everything you got to do for me
Come on and rescue me
Givin' everything I got, I do for you
You're the only one, baby
You're the only one who's got what I need
Baby, you're the only one, it's true

[Chorus]
When I need a man, I'm callin' you
When I need a man, strong and true
Baby, no one else will ever do
When I need a man, I need a man

When I need a man, I'm callin' you
When I need a man, strong and true
Baby, no one else will ever do
When I need a man, I need a man
