Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Huh
Know we need it (Soul power)
We got to have it (Soul power)
Know we want it (Soul power), ha
Got to have it (Soul power)
Give it to me (Soul power), hey
We need it (Soul power), ha
We want it (Soul power)
We've got to have it (Soul power)
[Verse 2]
I wanna get under your skin
If I get there, I've got to win
You need some soul, come on and get some
And then you'll know where I'm comin' from, ha
[Verse 3]
I may lay in the cut and go along
And I'm still on the case and my wrap is strong
Ha, ah, hey
Go jump on my train when I'm outta sight
Just check yourself, ha, and say
Yeah, you're right, ha
Hey, hit me
[Verse 4]
Huh, give me
Put it there, ha
Love me tender, and love me slow
If that don't get it (Ha)
Come back for more (Uh)
Love me tender (Ah), and love me slow
If that don't get it (Huh)
Come back for more (Hey)
[Verse 5]
Uh, look at here
You gotta get, ha, in the bracket
You know I like it, ha, all right
Look it here, all right, uh
[Verse 6]
Don't fall on the ground
You've got to get down, down, down
Down, down
Ha, uh, don't fall on the ground
You've got to get down, down, down
Down, down
[Verse 7]
Ha, ha
Good God
I've got to ask you
What we need (Soul power)
What we want, uh (Soul power)
Got to have (Soul power)
What we want (Soul power)
What we missin' (Soul power)
What we missin' (Soul power)
What we want (Soul power)
What we need (Soul power)
Ha, uh, hey, hit me
[Verse 8]
Love me tender, love me slow
Ha, if that don't get it (Ha)
Come back for more (Ah)
Hey, love me tender, love me slow
If that don't get it (Tell 'em, Bobby)
Come back for more (Yeah)
We gotta get, we gotta, we gotta
Get in the bracket
You know I like it
