[Intro, spoken]
You know, if there ever was a classic, I guess
With all the tunes I've written myself, you know
I always try to have a meaning behind, uh... every time I write a tune
And when I wrote "Please, Please", I wrote it because I was hungry
Then I started tellin' a whole lot of stories, you know...
About my life, and what's really made it sad, you know
But uh... then after about three years, I ran into somewhat of a vamp
I couldn't get nothin' to go, I couldn't cut a tune
Asked 'em "Please, Please", and that- that didn't make it
Everybody was telling me what to cut, but you have to cut what you feel
So I came up with a... a tune, I said "I did everything
I've tried everything, I can't get nothin' to go", you know
So... I just say "Hey, let me do one from my heart"
And uh... after trying everything, it was only one thing I could do or say...
Hit it, fellas

[Verse 1]
Try me (try me)
Try me (try me)
Darlin', tell me "I need you"
Try me (try me)
Try me (try me)
And your love will always be true
Oh, I need you

[Verse 2]
Hold me (hold me)

Hold me (hold me)
And your love we won't a-hide
Oh, I need you

[Verse 3]
Walk with me (walk with me)
Mm, talk with me (talk with me)
Stop my, stop my heart from crying
Walk with me (walk with me)
Talk with me (talk with me)
And your love, will stop my heart from dying
Oh, I need you
(I need you...)
I need you
