Jackson 5: I Want You Back (Extended Motown Soul Mix)

[Intro - 1:00](Fast piano glissando, iconic walking bassline, rhythmic handclaps, "Uh-huh!", "Let’s go!", "Hoo!")[Verse 1]When I had you to myself, I didn't want you aroundThose pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowdBut someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it tookNow it's much too late for me to take a second look[Pre-Chorus]Oh baby, give me one more chance! (To show you that I love you)Won't you please let me back in your heart?Oh darling, I was blind to let you go! (Let you go, baby)But now since I see you in his arms...[Chorus]I want you back! (Yes, I do now)I want you back! (Ooh, ooh, baby)I want you back! (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)I want you back! (Na na na na!)[Verse 2]Trying to live without your love is one long sleepless nightLet me show you, girl, that I know wrong from rightEvery street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the groundFollowing the girl I didn't even want around[Instrumental Jam - 1:30](Extended bass solo, funky guitar scratching, bright brass section stabs. Focus on the groove. Brothers chanting "Do-do-do-do" in the background.)[Verse 3]All I want, all I need, is one more chance to proveThat I've changed my way of thinking, I've got nothing left to loseSpare me this cause, don't make me lose my mind! (Hee-hee!)[Bridge - Vocal Breakdown](Music drops to only bass, drums and handclaps)All I want! (All I want!)All I need! (All I need!)If you could only see me now!I'm coming home! (I'm coming home!)[Chorus - Grand Finale]I want you back! (Forget what happened then)I want you back! (Let me live again!)I want you back! (I'm coming home, girl!)I want you back![Outro - 1:30](Ad-libs: "Hoo! Uh-huh! Oh baby!", "I want you back, I want you back!")(Fading with powerful brass hits and the repetitive iconic bassline).
