Do the things that keep a smile on her face
Say the things that make her feel better every day
Man you gotta stay on your p's and q's
If you don't, the woman you could easily lose

Oh you, oh you had a love and you lost her
And no one can help you share the pain that it cost you

Oh a woman's gotta have it I believe
She's gotta know that she's needed around
When you kiss her you gotta make her feel it every time, boy
She got to know that she's not walking on shaky ground

Yeah, yeah
Think it over, think it over
Think it over my brothers

Don't take for granted the smile on her face
Check a little bit closer, you might find a tear trace
Maybe the girl might never say a mumblin' word
But you've got to make sure that her voice is heard

Oh you had a love, a true love and you lost her
Now you're suffering all this pain that love cost you

Oh a woman's gotta have it I believe
She's gotta know that she's needed around
When you kiss her you gotta make her feel it every time, boy
She got to know that she's not walking on shaky ground

Yeah, yeah

So if you've got a love and you want to keep her
You've got to give her what she wants when she wants it
Where she wants it and how she wants it
And every time she feels she needs it
What I'm trying to say boy
A woman's gotta have it

What I'm trying to say
A woman's gotta have it
Yeah
