Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tell me when you need it again
Tell me when you need it again
[Verse 2]
What's comin' over your mind?
You wanted my sugar this time
We're good together, I know
Why would you go lookin' for new love tomorrow?
[Verse 3]
Why don't you tell me when you need it again?
Come on and tell me when you need it again
Why don't you tell me when you need it again?
Why don't you tell me when you need it again?
[Verse 4]
Tell me when you need it, baby
I can keep you satisfied
Tell me when you need it, baby
So I can keep you satisfied
[Verse 5]
You say we're needin' a change
You should be doin' other things
But when you're feelin' my touch
You don't be complainin' as much
[Verse 6]
Why won't you tell me when you need it again?
Come on and tell me when you need it again
Why won't you tell me when you need it again?
Come on and tell me when you need it again
Come on and tell me
(Tell me when you need it again)
Why don't you tell me when you need it again?
Come on and tell me when you need it again
Come on and tell me when you need it again
Come on and tell me when you need it again (Yeah)
Come on and tell me when you need it again
(Tell me when you need it again)
Tell me when you need it, baby
(Tell me when you need it again)
Tell me when you need it, baby
(Tell me when you need it again)
You need, oh, when you need, well, when you need it
(Tell me when you need it again)
When you need it, when you need it
[Verse 7]
(Tell me)
You say you needed my sugar
And now you're changin' your mind
(Tell me)
Why don't you get it together?
And stop wastin' my time
Well, well, well, well
(Tell me)
Tell me that you need it, baby
So I can keep you satisfied
(Tell me)
Tell me when you need it
So I can keep you satisfied
[Verse 8]
(Tell me)
(Tell me)
(Tell me)
(Tell me)
(Tell me)
(Tell me)
(Tell me)
(Tell me)
