Mona [Aka I Need You Baby] Lyrics

Hey, Mona
Oh, Mona
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Mona
Oh, Mona

Tell you Mona what I wanna do
Build a house next door to you
And I see you sometime
We can go kissing through the blind

Can you come out in the front?
Listen to my heart go bumpity-bump
I need you baby, that's no lie
Without your love I'd surely die

Hey, Mona
Ooh, Mona
Hey, hey, Mona
Hey, Mona

Hey, oh, Mona
Oh-oh, Mona
Can you come out in the front?
Listen to my heart go bumpity-bump
I need you baby that's no lie
Without your love I'd surely die

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
