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

Cuz everybody needs someone sometime
Everybody needs someone can´t you see
Everybody needs someone sometime

(Bridge)
Hey there* honeybee
Will you give me...sugar
And if you shake real cute, I might give you some*sugar
I was doin´ alright on my own
Now I might just take you home*sugar

Sister Mary used to be a nun
She thought that she´d retire and have her some fun
Mr. Joe of the Philadelphia Joes
Well he walked in the post office one night (this is the only line I´m not sure
of)
He said hey sweetheart you know you look all right

I said
Everybody needs someone sometime
Everybody needs someone can´t you see
Everybody needs someone sometime

(Repeat chorus till fade out)
