Mary heard boys talking in voices low Said she weren't no spring chicken Like she didn't already know So she called up Jack from a few years back She turned him down once in his one room shack She said "Now baby, you don't look that bad" [CHORUS:] Cuz everybody needs someone sometime Everybody needs someone, can't you see? Everybody needs someone sometime Spivy Leaks was a drip of a man He looked like a potato shoved into jeans He recollects it wasn't that long ago That he could walk by Make the young girls scream But he thought he'd just let it all slide Let it all pass Cuz he thought love was best on the run He said "Now baby, it don't seem that fun" [CHORUS]
