I can pay my own light bill, baby
Put my own gas in my own car
I can buy my own shoe collection
I've been blessed thus far

I can kill the spider above my bed
Although it's hard because I'm scared
I can even stain and poly your bane
But some things just don't change

I need you, yeah
Sometimes so hard to say, uh
I need you
Some things remain

I can buy my own groceries, baby
Get my hair dyed, my nails fly
I can floss my own bling-bling
Write the words to the songs I sing

I can even raise a child well-made
Make sure he's loved and knows what God gave, uh huh
I can teach him how to walk and stand
But he needs you to help him be a man

Umm

We need you
So hard to say
We need you
Some things don't change

I can be a Congress woman or a garbage woman
A police officer or a carpenter
I can be doctor and a lawyer and a mother and a good goddess
Woman, what you done to me?
Good lover I can be
I can be a computer on a list
The queen with the nappy hair raising the fist
Or 
I can be much more and a myriad of this
Hot as the summer
Sweet as the first kiss

And even though I can do all these things
I need you
And even though I can do all these things
We need you
We need you, we need you
And even though I can do all these things by my damn self
I need you
I do, I do, I do, I do
And though I can do all these here things
I need you, we need you
I do
