I Need Somebody Lyrics

I am your crazy driver
Honey, I'm sure to steer you so wrong
I'm a dying in this story
I'm only livin' to sing this song

I need somebody, baby
You need somebody too
I need somebody, baby
Just like you, just like you

And I'm losing all my feelings
And I'm running out of friends
You know you lied to me in the beginning
Now you're gonna try to bring me to the end
And you know that's such a shame

I need somebody, baby
You need somebody too
I need somebody, baby
Just like you, just like you

Now it's time to leave this signal
In in a run down and rotten mess
You know I got my reputation
Right there in your blue jean dress
And it's such a shame, baby

I need somebody, baby
You need somebody too
I need somebody, baby
Just like you, just like you

I need somebody
Somebody
Somebody

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.
