Loggins & Messina

Loggins and Messina was an American pop rock duo consisting of Kenny Loggins and Jim Messina, who achieved major chart success during the 1970s. Among their well-known songs are "Danny's Song", "House at Pooh Corner", and "Your Mama Don't Dance". After selling more than 16 million records and becoming one of the leading musical duos of the 1970s, Loggins and Messina separated in 1976. Although Messina would find only limited popularity following the breakup, Loggins went on to achieve major chart success in the 1980s.

I met myself a woman down in Memphis
She sat down and talked to me
When I asked her to reply
She looked in my eye and I said,
"Woman, I know what you need,
You need a man,
One who's long enough to last,
And he likes to take it slow and easy,
You need a man,
One with lovin' on his mind and
All he wants to do is, baby now, please."

She said, "Whoa, you're just a little bit crazed,
You don't know what you're talkin' about."
I said, "Now, listen little girl,
I'll give a two pound pearl,
If you only let me help you find out that
You need a man, one who's long enough to last,
And likes to take it slow and easy,
You need a man,
One with lovin' on his mind
And all he wants to do is please."

Now, I was sittin' in a little speakeasy,
When I came across that delta girl,
She said, "I hope you understand."
As she opened up the hand,
Now she said, "Honey, you can keep the pearl,
'Cause you are the man,
One who's long enough to last,
And likes to take it slow and easy,
You are the man,

One with lovin' on his mind and
All he wants to do is please."

Everyday seems a little brighter
Every load feels a little lighter
When I know I'm coming to you.

When every road seems a little longer
With every mile I grow a little stronger
When I know I'm coming to you.

You know I barely got enough money to buy the morning
news
I ain't seen a dollar since I last paid my union dues
But with love you're never without
and there ain't no reason to doubt
Oh there ain't no reason...no reason to doubt.

Always get a little lonely when I'm away from you
I end up feeling sorry for the pain I put you through
But with love you're never without, and there ain't no
reason to doubt
Oh there ain't no reason, no reason to doubt.

Everyday seems a little brighter
Every load feels a little lighter
When I know I'm coming to you.

When every road seems a little longer
With every mile I grow a little stronger
When I know I'm coming to you.
When I know I'm coming to you.
