Fellas, I wonder would you mind if I talked to ya a minute?
You know, sometimes we have our tendencies
Or should I say we forget
What a woman needs every now and then
That is, if you wanna keep your thing together (yeah yeah yeah)
Listen to me now

Do the things that keeps the smile on her face
Say the things that make her feel better everyday
Then you got to stay on your Ps and Qs
If you don't, the woman you can easily lose

Oh, I thought I had her love and I lost her
And no one can help me share the pain that she caused me
Oh, a woman's gotta have it
I believe, she's gotta know that she's needed around
When you kiss her, you gotta make her feel it
Every time boy
She wants to know that she's not walkin' on shaky ground

Oh, yeah
Well, think it over (over)
Think it over, my brother

Don't take for granted the smile on her face
Check a little bit closer, you might find a tear trace
Maybe the girl might never say a mumbling word
But you've gotta make sure that her voice is heard

Oh, I had a love, a true love and I lost it
I'm suffering all this pain that that love caused me
Oh, a woman's gotta have it
You got to give it to her (everyday)
She's gotta know that she's needed around
When you kiss her, you gotta make her feel it
She wanna know that she's not walkin' on shaky ground
Yeah, oh

So if you've got a love (love)
And you wanna keep her (keep her)
You've got to give her what she wants, when she wants it
Where she wants it
And how she wants it (oh yeah)
Every doggone time she feels she needs it
What I'm tryin' to say (what you tryna say boy?)
A woman's gotta have it
Hey, hey, hey, a woman's gotta have it
If you wanna keep the girl around
