WoodLore – A Little Love

Mama went out in the city;
Papa’s working late again.
She’s all alone in her dusty room
Looking for joy in any place she can.

He tells her that he loves her mama,
But all they ever do is fight.
If that’s the only love she sees,
Then do you think she’s gonna get it right?
Do you think she's gonna get it right?

Well, the pain don’t stop when you walk out the door.
She needs you now more than ever before.
It’s been a long time since you’ve been there to dry her eyes.
Look in her eyes; it’s no surprise.
She can’t get along;
She doesn’t know what’s right or wrong.
Well, you can give a little girl everything she’d ever want,
But what she needs is a little love.
 
Every day she’s lonely,
Every day’s the same,
When after school she sits at home,
While the others go out to play.
 
And time’s not gonna change her,
So you’ve got no time to lose.
The only way to save that girl is if the change comes from you.
Oh, it’s gotta come from you!
 
’Cause the pain don’t stop when you walk out the door.
She needs you now more than ever before.
It’s been a long time since you’ve been there to dry her eyes.
Look in her eyes; it’s no surprise.
She can’t get along;
She doesn’t know what’s right or wrong.
Well you can give a little girl everything she’d ever want,
But what she needs is a little love.
 
Just a little love.
Come on, a little love.
You gotta love her,
And hold her,
And teach her everything you know.
A little love, just a little love.

A little love,
A little love.

Love her, love her.
Love that girl like you’ve never loved before,
And one day, she’ll love you in return.
She'll love you,
And hold you,
And teach you everything she knows.
A little love, just a little love.
