Jody Watley - I'm The One You Need Lyrics






I've been around for quite some time
Patiently waiting for you to settle down
But my patience is starting to wear very thin
From stories of your women time and time again

So don't take my love for granted
Or you might lose a good thing
I'm trying to do the best I can for you
And when you stop playing around
You'll really know it's true

That I'm the one you need baby
I'm the one you need baby
If you look inside your heart
You'll really it's true
That I'm the one you need baby

'Cause I care for you
I live for you

I'm not out to get your money
'Cause I buy my own clothes and I pay my own rent
All I want from you is love and affection
That'll keep us moving in the right direction

'Cause I care for you
I live for you
I'd die for you
I'm the one you need baby
Yeah, I'm the one you need
I'm the one

  25. b.... x....

    I like the album version way more than this version!

  26. A.... W....

    Simply great

  27. B.... H....

    Easily, this is one of Jody's best songs. Man, 1991 was a great year for music especially in the rap and R&B genres.

  28. B.... H....

    I LOVED it when Jody said I buy my own clothes and I pay my own rent, and all I need from you is love and affection. That's a DIME woman right there. Women who think like that barely exist today (if at all).

  29. B.... H....

    Jody was jamming in this video for real, especially at 1:37 to 1:38.

  30. J.... T....

    I love her dark hairy eyebrows she looks so pretty

  31. S.... R....

    Love the video, hate this remix. The album version rules!!!

  32. c.... o....

    so talented

  33. M.... F....

    Jody looks FREAKING AMAZING in this video so cool ...w/o being studly..love!!!!!

  34. W.... M....

    at her best.

  35. T.... M....

    the original video remix that was played on the radio is no where to be found on youtube. What's up with that. Jody? Did u not wanna pay for that remix? That was why I bought Affairs cd, to be disappointed that it wasn't on there. Please give your fans the original dance pop remix that was serviced to top 40/ urban..that was a slammin remix

  36. T.... M....

    the original video remix was so much better. it used to be on here

  37. L.... a....

    LLLOOOLLL :)

  38. J.... A....

    Happy Birthday Jody Watley'

  39. M.... ....

    Happy Jody Watley

  40. D.... V....

    I think this audio video version  kept the song from making it to the pop top 10 because the original album/cd version is PERFECT as it is with the famous David Morales as the producer

    D.... V....

    You know what I found 2 other remixes which I still have, but I never came across the video version in the stores...well I don't recall

    D.... V....

    I agree. The album version released as is for the single would have been perfect. I like the mix but the Hip-Hop element was not needed for people to take notice of the song. The original mix is flawless!

    D.... V....

    DJ V- ANTHONI. It almost did it made it to number 19 on the hot 100.

    D.... V....

    This version is dull by comparison

    D.... V....

    DJ V- ANTHONI Actually hip hop dominated the sales charts in the early 90s with groups like NWA blowing up and selling millions.

  41. T.... P....

    she's just too sexy!

  42. M.... R....

    when pop stars didn't look like porn stars

    M.... R....

    yeah, that justify my love/erotica era, the era of pop purity.

  43. N.... C....

    this is the Jody Watley jammm!

  44. i.... t....

    So SEXY. Askin' me what I want? Reach for the sky.😀

  45. M.... C....

    hahaha, i thought this was an ad on youtube when it first started, for like Clairol or something

  46. a.... t....

    I still live for this remix!!!! Its my favorite mix of this song!!!! They don't make funky mixes like this to get your groove on to today :( #JodyWasGettingIt!!!!!

    a.... t....

    what mix is it? Is it available on CD? I don't think I've ever heard it before.

    a.... t....

    +Joseph Molnar Its Hard To Find!!!! I Was Able To Download It & Put It On A CD

    a.... t....

    +algie thomas Do you know the name of the remix?

  47. N.... N....

    This woman deserves to be an icon on the level of Janet Jackson, Madonna and Whitney!!!! Simply talented, classy, amazing!!!!

    N.... N....

    The momentum is determined by record and concert ticket sales. She had a great run and made lots a money. That's the business.

    N.... N....

    You are so right!!! She sings and dances effortlessly!!!! Timeless Groove!!!

    N.... N....

    SOOOOOOOOO completely agree...she is the Sade of dance/singy/slingy genre!!!!!!

    N.... N....

    What about Nona hendryx

  48. M.... H....

    I been thinking about this song for so long!

    M.... H....

    Here I am listening to it again two years later!

    M.... H....

    kkkk you got good taste

  49. N.... S....

    where can i find this re-mix???

  50. m.... ....

    I loved this video, but I dug the other version of song used, this is cool but I liked the other better

  51. N.... N....

    This video should have 1 million views. Jody is a beautiful and talented woman!

  52. d.... t....

    Just saw Jody Friday night, July 19, 2013 and "still got it". She rock an excellent show in D.C.

  53. b.... ....

    Okay I'm convinced..you're the one I need girl! Fantastic vid!

    Love this song..its tops!

  60. T.... b....

    Love her!

  61. F.... ....

    She just gets better looking w/age....!!

  62. m.... ....

    why is it so hard to find and how can I get a copy of it? I remember i had it on cassette from the american top 40 show back in '92, but on bad quality

  63. V.... ....

    i was pissed when they remixed this song for the video; there was nothing wrong with the original. This remix version is too watered down; now the other rare remix "The Funky Chicken Mix wouldve been a better choice

  64. m.... ....

    @dmfdn25 thank you!!! I knew this wasn't the same version I knew and loved

  65. s.... ....

    @chicsensibilities Shanice was a youngish singer who had a #1 hit around the world with "I Love Your Smile".

  66. M.... ....

    definitely gorgeous just that voice tuning is not the best...

  67. b.... ....

    I LOVE JODY

  68. B.... .....

    Always loved Jody..all her music..amazing talent..

  69. J.... J....

    @chicsensibilities shanice was a Minnie version of (JANET) who also similar to TLC, tayana ali........and chante Moore....

  70. S.... ....

  71. O.... ....

    JODY IS THE CHAMP! UNCONTESTED!!!

  72. v.... ....

    SHE IS GORGEOUS!!!!

  73. J.... J....

    @lescas1159 so shanice lol.

  74. I.... ....

    love this song this was when music was good!

  75. J.... R....

    THANKS FOR THE GREAT SOUND!!

  76. m.... ....

    Nice video and mix but I still prefer the album version. Jody shows exactly why she is a beauty, style and dance icon as well as a class act.

  77. N.... ....

    Pure talent. Love it.

  78. S.... ....

    I've heard so many different mixes of this song, but I still prefer the album version.

  79. H.... J....

    This version is new to me also, it's very different from the album version and I don't recall it from the CD maxi single. It had a version with a much longer spoken part called the "ultimate love letter mix" (I think).

  80. R.... F....

    Nex, cant help, but it Rox.
