Song Lyrics

Do do do do, do do, do
Do do do do, do do, do

I can pay my own light bill baby (Do do do do, do do)
Pump my own gas in my own car (Do do do do, do do)
I can buy my own shoe collection (Do do do do, do do)
I've been blessed thus far (Do do do do, do do)

I can kill the spider above my bed (Do do do do, do do)
Although it's hard because I'm scared (Do do do do, do do)
I can even stain and polyurethane (Do do do do, do do)
But some things just don't change (Do do do do, do do)

I need you, yeah (Do do do do, do do)
Sometimes so hard to say, oh (Do do do do, do do)
I need you (Do do do do, do do)
Somethings remain (Do do do do, do do)

I can buy my own groceries baby (Do do do do, do do)
Get my hair tight my nails right (Do do do do, do do)
I can floss my own bling bling (Do do do do, do do)
Write the the words to the songs I sing (Do do do do, do do)

I can even raise the child we'll make (Do do do do, do do)
Make sure he's loved and knows what God gave us (Do do do do, do do)
I can teach him how to walk and stand (Do do do do, do do)
But he needs you to help him be a man (Do do do do, do do)

We need you (Do do do do, do do)
So hard to say (Do do do do, do do)
We need you (Do do do do, do do)
Somethings don't change

I could be congresswoman or a garbage woman
Or police officer or a carpenter
I could be a doctor and a lawyer
And a mother an good girl
Women what you've done to me, kind of lover I can be

I could be a computer analyst (Do do do do, do do)
The queen with the nappy hair raising her fist
Or I could be much more and a myriad of this (Do do do do, do do)
Hot as the summer, sweet as the first kiss
And even though I can do all these things (Do do do do, do do)

I need you (Do do do do, do do)
And even though I can do all these things (Do do do do, do do)
We need you, we need you, we need you (Do do do do, do do)
And even though I can do all these things (Do do do do, do do)
By my damnself

I need you (Do do do do, do do)
I do, I do, I do, I do
And even though I can do all these things (Do do do do, do do)
I need you (Do do do do, do do)
We need you, we do (Do do do do, do do)
We need you, yeah, we need you (Do do do do, do do)
