Lyrics

[Intro]
Uh
[Instrumental]
You
You got, you got, you got what I need
You got, you got, you got what I want
Only you, baby, only you
Only you, you, you, you, you, you
[Verse 1]
I ain't never had nobody
Love me like you do
Ain't never had nobody
Please me through and through
Ain't never had nobody
Talk to me this way
Nobody even comes close
When it comes to loving me
[Chorus]
You
You got, you got, you got what I need
You got, you got, you got what I want
Only you, baby, only you
Only you, you, you, you, you, you
[Verse 2]
I ain't never had nobody
In my life before
Ain't never had nobody
Give me the key to the door
Ain't never had nobody
Take away my troubles
When I'm down and out, girl
You come, running on the double
[Chorus]
You
You got, you got, you got what I need
You got, you got, you got what I want
Only you, baby, only you
Only you, you, you, you, you, you
[Instrumental]
I ain't never had nobody
Love me like you do
I ain't never had nobody
Please me through and through
I ain't never had nobody
Talk to me this way
Nobody even comes close
When it comes to loving me
[Chorus]
You
You got, you got, you got what I need
You got, you got, you got what I want
Only you, baby, only you
Only you, you, you, you, you, you
You, you, you, you, you
[Instrumental]
You got, you got, you got, you got
You got what I need
You got, you got, you got, you got
You got what I want, yes, you do
Only you, you, you
Get me the key to the door
Get me the key to the door
Only you, you, only you
Make me feel like I've never felt before, yes you do
Only you, only you, only you, only you
Only you, only you, only you, only you
[Instrumental]
You got it, got it, yeah
Swear you got it, yes, you do
Satisfy me, woman
You know what to do to me, child
Swear you got it, swear you got it
You know how to please me, uh-huh
Know just where to tease me
Know just what to do
Only you, only you, just you, just you
You, you, you, you
You got, you got, you got what I want
You got, you got, you got what I need
You, you, only you, satisfy me, lover
Only you, satisfy me, woman
You, you, get me the key to the door
Just you, satisfy until I'm no more, no more
You, you, you, you, you
