Lyrics:

Well, I'm hungry for lovin',

but I just can't get me none

I tried and I tried,

but I can't find anyone



Won't somebody tell me what the reason can be,

why no girl wants to give her love to me?

Everybody needs something, and I need to be loved.

Now, most people have it,

and they get it all the time

But I do without it, tell me why can't love be mine?



I tried for so long,

but it's so hard to find

a lover to help me,

it's breakin' my mind



Everybody needs something, and I need to be loved

Well, I spend my time lost and lonely,

everyday and all night

I don't know how long I can go on,

and I know is it ain't right



Well now, can't find that certain someone,

and I just don't understand

I know out there, there's a girl somewhere,

for such a lonely man

I'll come home this evening

just like all the nights before,

and I'll be alone

When I walk through my front door

And I'll go to bed 'round a quarter to 2,

and I will start cryin like I always do



Everybody needs something and I need to be loved

Whoa, I need to be loved

Yeah, I need to be loved
