David Gates - Baby I'm - A Want You Lyrics






Baby I'm-a want you
Baby I'm-a need you
You're the only one I care enough to hurt about
Maybe I'm-a crazy
But I just can't live without
your lovin' and affection
Givin' me direction
Like a guiding light to help me through a darkest hour
Lately I'm a-prayin'
That you'll always be a-stayin' beside me

Used to be my life was just emotions passing by
Feeling all the while and never really knowing why

Lately I'm a-prayin'
That you'll always be a-stayin' beside me.

Used to be my life was just emotions passing by
Then you came along and made me laugh and made me cry
You taught me why

Baby I'm-a want you
Baby I'm-a need you

Oh, it took so long to find you, baby

Baby I'm-a want you
Baby I'm-a need you

    Started listening to the raio in the early 70's.Did"n't pay much attention to these guys as an 8 yr old in 1973. 55 now and the older I get the more I appreciate the singer-songwriter era of the 1970's

  3. A.... ....

    Great song, i love it!

  4. B.... W....

    Such a great song man brings me back to better times man but people just dug each other I live in Oceanside at the time had a 1968 Chevy used to hang out on Woods Ave., Long Beach Road heading to the beach man just laying down and digging this tune smoking a bone and drinking a beer

    The 70's was a magical time for music. Some of the best music came out of the 60's and 70's. Sometimes wish I could reverse time and be young in the 70's again. Today's world sucks. We don't even have a country anymore.

    Ahhhh... Sweet...
    I like Bread ....breakfast, dinner, and just like right now, am listening again while eating my lunch. And who sez there's no forever? Bread is one proof that there is... Love them ! 😍😘

    P.. S. : This is a perfect song for someone that I adored. Yes, "you" that I've talked to on the phone and met last Sept. 2019 . You didn't know how sorry I was for my decision. I wasn't ready to get involved that time. Too much things in mind...wish you came to my life after Oct.and it's gonna be a beautiful story. 💞 miss you... dearly.

    I agree. The 70's was the best decade ever. I remember slow dancing with a beautiful brown haired 16 year old girl who i was completely in love with but was an asshole and lost her.

    The only problem with this song is it's not long enuff.

  20. F.... D....

    Very nice!

  21. G.... C....

    Was hoping this was a real live performance but he's lip syncing to the original studio vocal. Love me some Bread regardless! David Gates was a phenomenal singer and songwriter.

    @william lobur my daughter refuses to listen to quality music. She's 28 and has no taste for good music like this

    F.... M....

    Folasko Music today they are NOT artists for the majority, except Alicia Keys, they are kids with a look, a dozen writers producers with a song , toss the kid in a studio, teach them to lip synch , dance around the stage like a circus act and the somgs sells millions, garbage

    F.... M....

    Today’s music is one big unbelievable shit storm
