Solomon Burke - We Don’t Need It lyrics

[Solomon Burke - We Don’t Need It lyrics]

Here I am at home (hrum, hrum hrum)

I was afraid, to get out of the car
So I just sat there, I just sat there
How was I gonna tell them?
That I lost my job
Gotta go in there, gotta go in there
So we gathered 'round the table
Told them the news
And the look of desperation
Nearly broke me in two

Son, I know you wanted them running shoes
Gonna have to wait, they going have to wait
Darling, I know you wanted
That dress in the window we gonna get it
But it won't be now

Then my little girl looked at me
With those big round eyes
And the words she told me


Almost made me cry!

We don't need it we can do without it
We going to make it no doubt about it
We're going stick together make it better
We don't need it all we need is you
My son said daddy, I got sixteen books
Why don't you take it, I want you to take it
The next door neighbor
Asked me to rake the leaves
And I'm gonna do it, I'm sure gonna do it
'Cause I wanna help you out anyway I can
It's about time I learn, just to be a man

My wife said darling, we got so much stuff
Just sitting around here, just sitting around
Like grandmom's china
And the sterling silverware
Just sitting around here, just gathering dust
Ever since she past away
We ain't used it yet
So let's put it out in the front yard
And see what we can get

And we don't need it we can do without it
We gonna make it no doubt about it
We're going stick together make it better
We don't need it all we need is you
Days and weeks and months went by
The big boss called in a lickup town
Got my check and brought it home
Yeah, it's been tough
But we've been blessed
Let's get them shoes
And that brand new dress!

We don't need it we can do without it
We gonna make it no doubt about it
We're going stick together make it better
We don't need it all we need is you (you)

We don't need it we can do without it
We gonna make it no doubt about it
We're going stick together
And make it better we don't need it
All we need is you (loving you)
We can do without it we gonna make it
No doubt about it
We're going stick together (begin fading)
And make it better we don't need it
All we need is you
