Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There are no monks in my band
There are no saints in this land
I'll be doin' all I can
Live, I die an honest man
[Verse 2]
Confusion is my middle name
Ask me again, I'll tell you the same
Persuaded by one sexy dame, yeah, yeah
No, I do not feel no shame
[Verse 3]
(You are all alone)
Can I get a little lovin' from you?
Can I get a little bit of that done did do?
(You are all alone)
Tell me now, girl, that you need me too
Oh, tell me now, girl, 'cause I've got a feeling for you
[Verse 4]
Every man has certain needs
Talkin' 'bout them dirty deeds
To these needs I must concede, yeah, yeah
Livin' by my lowly creed
[Verse 5]
Woman, please know that I'm good
Know that I did all I could
But, yes, it's true, the likelihood, yeah, yeah
Of being great is not so good
[Verse 6]
(You are all alone)
Can I get a little lovin' from you?
Can I get a little bit of that done did do?
(You are all alone)
Tell me now, girl, that you need me, too
Oh, tell me now, girl, 'cause I've got a feeling for you
[Verse 7]
There are no monks in my band
There are no saints in this land
I'll be doin' all I can, yeah, yeah
Live, I die an honest man
[Verse 8]
Virtue slipped into my shoe
No, I will not misconstrue
More rockin', more rockin', now doobley do, yeah, yeah
Dancin' down your avenue
[Verse 9]
(You are all alone)
Can I get a little lovin' from you?
Can I get a little bit of that done did do?
(You are all alone)
Tell me now, girl, that you need me, too
Oh, tell me now, girl, 'cause I've got a feeling for you
