Arguments, fuss and fights
Breakups, lonely nights
Court cases, separation
Children lost, this is the world we facing
Mama's crying, yeah
And every time I look up somebody's dying
And it makes me ask the question

Where's love when you need it?
Somebody tell me where's love, oh when you need it?
Woah-Woah-Woah, oh

Bills do, yeah, no work
Dying young
Tell me what is that worth?
Taxes, lay offs
Yeah, violence
And love one's lost
Oh, mama's crying
(Mama's crying)
And every time I look up somebody's dying
And it makes me ask the question

Where's love, oh, oh, oh, yeah, when you need it?
Somebody tell me where's love when you need it?
(Said I gotta know, gotta know)
(Oh, when you need)
Oh, it makes me throw up both my hands
With all this hating going on, I just don't understand, yeah

How much long must we go on this way?
(How long, my god, oh)
See, I don't wanna wait another day
(I don't want to wait another day)
Said I gotta know

Somebody tell me, tell me, oh
