Lyrics Gotta Find Me A Lover - Erma Franklin

Gotta Find Me A Lover

I’m tired of being the one who’s always denied,
Tired of being the one who has to fight.
I go through life with my head hangin' down,
Cause I don’t have a man around.
I’m a woman and that’s no lie.
You know I’m gonna be satisfied.
Gotta have somebody, somewhere,
I got to find me a lover, yeah.
24 hours a day.
I got to find me a lover, ooh.
Who’s mine in every way.
Every man I get my hands on,
Is carrying another’s love.
Well I try to be, a real nice lady,
Cause I don’t wanna take 'em apart.
All I can see, how they’re close together,
Lovin' each other forever.
Now I’m tired of being nice,
Gonna stop hurtin' me.
I’m a woman and that’s no lie.
You know I’ve gotta be satisfied.
There’s somebody somewhere,
I got to find me a lover, yeah.
24 hours a day.
I’ve got to find me a lover, ooh.
Who’s mine in every way, yeah.
Got to find me a lover.
You know I need me a love.
Ooh ooh sweet lover.
My my sweet lover.
