[Intro] (Iconic r. Parker Jr. style clean guitar riff starts) (Deep voice spoken) "Yeah... eighty-one soul meets the West side vibe." "Listen close... 'cause a woman needs more than just words." "She needs that bounce. She needs that Funk." [Verse 1 - Deep Voice Rapper] Cruising slow under the moonlight breeze, rims spinning with ease Looking at the reflection of the city in her eyes, she’s tired of the same old lies You think a little conversation is enough to keep her heart from getting tough? But she’s searching for a feeling that’s deeper than the surface. [Verse 2 - Deep Voice Rapper] Original vibes, yeah we keep it on track, once she feels this funk she ain't never coming back It’s a lesson for the brothers who forget the soul, you gotta let the rhythm take control Don't be surprised when she walks out the door, searching for a groove that gives her more. [Verse 3 - Deep Voice Rapper] She remembers the melody from way back when, but the world has changed since then Now it’s all about the bass and the steady beat, moving her soul and moving her feet Keep your eyes open wide, don't let the moment slide, stay right there by her side. [Pre-Chorus] (Smooth background vocals) Don't make the mistake of thinking she's okay With a beat that's cold and a heart that's gray She needs the motion, she needs the heat... [Chorus] (Lead Vocal) A woman needs Funk (Lush Harmony) Just like you do (Lead Vocal) Hey, don't fool yourself, thinking that she don't (Lead Vocal) She can groove around (Lush Harmony) Just like you do (Lead Vocal) Unless you give her all the Funk she wants [Verse 4 - Funky Nasal Rapper] (Snappy flow) Ow! Now listen to the words I say, you better treat her right in a funky way If you’re out there chasing every girl in town, don’t be shocked when she ain't around It’s a two-way street in this game of life, you gotta bring the real-deal sound. [Verse 5 - Funky Nasal Rapper] She needs that bounce, that classic feel, the kind of groove that makes everything real The synthesizer whining high in the sky, while the low-end bass keeps her soaring high The r. Parker rhythm with a G-Funk twist, it’s the kind of magic that can’t be missed. [Bridge 1] (Music shifts, atmosphere changes) (Smooth melodic rap) "Wait a minute, let’s change the pace." "Put a little bit of soul in this space." "It's not just about the talk, it's about the walk." "Give her the pocket, let the rhythm unlock it." [Verse 6 - Deep Voice Rapper] So take a seat and learn the rules, before you end up playing the part of the fools A woman’s heart is a delicate thing, but she needs the funk that the bassline brings If you're acting cold, you're gonna find yourself growing old alone. [Verse 7 - Deep Voice Rapper] Look at the way she moves to the track, she’s got the rhythm and she’s got the knack But she needs you to lead with a steady hand, be the conductor of the funky band No more excuses, no more delays, it’s time to change up your old-school ways. [Verse 8 - Funky Nasal Rapper] (High energy flow) Yeah! You think you’re a player, you think you’re a star, but you won't get very far If you ignore the needs of the one by your side, she’s gonna take you for a bumpy ride It’s about the respect, it’s about the soul, it’s about the way you play your role. [Bridge 2] (Instrumental Break - Melodic guitar soloing) [Guitar solo in r. Parker Jr. style] [Smooth synth bass solo] [Funky drum breaks] [Verse 9 - Deep Voice Rapper] Keep the pocket tight, never let it slide, keep that lady right by your side The sun is coming up but the groove is still strong, this is the place where we both belong A woman needs love, yeah that’s the truth, but she needs the funk for eternal youth. [Verse 10 - Funky Nasal Rapper] No more games, no more acting tough, just give her the funk, she can't get enough From the East to the West, let the message spread, keep the funky vibes inside your head Woman needs funk, just like you do... so what you gonna do? [Chorus] (Lead Vocal) A woman needs Funk (Lush Harmony) Just like you do (Lead Vocal) Hey, don't fool yourself, thinking that she don't (Lead Vocal) She can groove around (Lush Harmony) Just like you do (Lead Vocal) Unless you give her all the Funk she wants [Outro] (Smooth guitar soloing in r. Parker Jr. style) (Harmony vocals echoing) "Just like you do..." "A Woman Needs Love... A Woman Needs Funk." "Keep it breezy, keep it smooth." "Yeah... that's the one. Peace." (Fade out with melodic guitar riffs)
