Well, baby, when times are bad
Now call on me, darling, and I'll come to you
When you're in trouble and feel so sad
Now call on me, darling, come on call on me
And I'll help you, yeah
A man and a woman have each other, baby
To find their way in this world, yeah
I need you, darling, like the fish needs the sea
And don't take your sweet, your sweet love from me
Now baby, when you're down and feel so blue
And know you won't drown, darling, I'll be there too
You're not alone, I'm there too
And whatever your troubles, darling, I don't care
A man and a woman have each other, baby
To find their way in this world, yeah, alright
I need you, darling, like the fish needs the sea
Don't take your sweet, sweet love from me
Please so baby, when times are bad
Call on me, darling, just call on me
