Verse 1

  Girl, have you ever been hungry

  So hungry that you had no pride

  Well, I got that feeling

  That biting, gnawing deep inside

  It's a funny pain

  One I can't explain

Chorus

  [1, 2: You gotta] help me, girl

  Help me, girl

  'Cause I'm going insane

3: to coda

Verse 2

I know about all the good things

And what that long green stuff can buy

Right or wrong it's a groove, girl

Yet somehow I'm not satisfied

You gotta show me the way

Turn my night into day

[repeat chorus]

Bridge

  Oh, I need someone, someone to comfort me

  Be my someone, be my reality, girl

Coda

  Oh, help me, girl

  [continue]

Help me baby

Help me, girl

I need your love, I need your love so bad

Help me, girl help me [fade]
