Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everybody needs a little place they can hide
Somewhere to call their own
Don't let nobody inside
Every now and then we all need to let go
For some it's the doctor
For me it's rock and roll
[Verse 2]
For some it's a bottle
For some it's a pill
Some people wave the Bible
'Cause it's giving them a thrill
[Verse 3]
Others point their finger
If they don't like what they see
If you live in a glass house
Don't be throwing rocks at me
[Verse 4]
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
To get us by
[Verse 5]
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
Ooh, and it'll be alright
[Verse 6]
Check out Mister Politician in his suit and tie
But when the doors are closed
There ain't nothing he won't try
Meanwhile, Mister Medicine's treating his best friend's wife
[Verse 7]
Tipper lead the war against the record industry
She said she saw the devil on her MTV
To look into the cabinet
It takes more than a key
Just like Jimmy's skeletons
And his ministry
[Verse 8]
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
To get us by
[Verse 9]
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
Ooh, and it'll be alright
Hit it now
[Verse 10]
I know for some it's the needle
For some it's the kill
Some people wave the Bible
'Cause it's giving them a thrill
[Verse 11]
You can spend your money
Before you get your pay
With a toss of the dice
You can piss it all away
[Verse 12]
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
To get us by
[Verse 13]
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
Ooh, and it'll be alright
[Verse 14]
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
Ooh, and it'll be alright
[Verse 15]
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
Ooh, and it'll be alright
[Verse 16]
We all need
A little shelter
Just a little helper
Ooh, and it'll be alright
I know it's gonna be alright
[Verse 17]
We all need
Come on, now
A little shelter
Come on, now, shelter me, now
[Verse 18]
Just a little helper
Just a little helper
Ooh, and it'll be alright
Shelter, shelter, shelter, shelter
Shelter, shelter, shelter, shelter
[Verse 19]
We all need
We need a little shelter
Just a little helper
Ooh, and it'll be alright
[Verse 20]
We all need
We all need
A little shelter
