I am your crazy driver
Honey I'm sure to steer you so wrong
I'm a dieing in this story
I'm only livin' to sing this song

I need somebody baby
You need somebody baby too
I need somebody baby
Just like you, Just like you

And I'm losing on my feelings
And I'm running out of friends
You know you lied to me in the beginning
Now your gonna try to bring me to the end
And you know that's such a shame

I need somebody baby
You need somebody baby too
I need somebody baby
Just like you, Just like you

Now its time to leave this signal
In in a run down and rotten mess
You know I got my reputation
Right there in your blue jean dress

I need somebody baby
You need somebody baby too
I need somebody baby
Just like you, Just like you
I need somebody
Somebody
Somebody
