Give Me Some Air

[Verse 1]
Girl, give me some air (Air)
And let me do my thing
I don't wanna be tied down
To your apron string
After workin' in the factory
In that airtight place
I'm cooped up at home all night
With a long, sad face
When my friends ask you
If I can play a little poker
Girl, you pump out your mouth, yeah
And I ended up the joker
When you turned your back
I tried to sneak on out
And for three whole days
Yes, I had to watch his mouth

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you know you tried to show these women
How much you really need 'em
And they turn around
And take all your freedom
Girl, I've been loving you
For five long years
You know I don't wanna do nothin', baby
That's gonna cause you no tears

[Chorus]
But evеrybody need a little air (I need a little air)
Oh, I need a bit of air (A little bit of air)
All I'm asking for is a littlе air, girl (I need a little air)
Oh, a little bit of air (A little bit of air)

[Verse 2]
That lady next door (Air)
She been telling you wrong
You can't keep no man
Tryin' to keep him at home
She lost one man
And if you ever stop to think
Girl, the man she's got now
She's driving him to drink
I want to make a little noise
Unlike the rest of the boys
Callin' each other names
Like a son of a ... gun
And if you ever tag along
You're gonna ruin the fun

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, every man
Likes to be mothered
But I don't know nobody
That wants to be smothered
Girl, I understand you
Please try and understand me
Oh, I love you so much, girl
Can't you see?

[Chorus]
But I need a little air (I need a little air)
They are callin' me square (A little bit of air)
You tied me to a chair (I need a little air)
I need a little air (A little bit of air)

Oh, give me some air
Everybody needs a little air
So give me some air
Oh, give me some air
