Hush my baby,
Don't cry tonight
My ears are sick of that sound
I've been searching
For someone to love
Looks like your all that that I've found.

I've been up
I've been down
Got a man in every port and every town
I've got nothing
Boy toys and playthings
Are a shallow reward....

Don't need a lover
Don't need a man
I don't need anything
I don't need a man
I need the moon
I need a star
I need an equal to capture my heart

I've had all types
Of men in this world
I've had princes and frogs
Chocolate Vanilla
Rich, poor, and the killer
Devil, demi-god, clergy and dog

Men they will come
Men they will go
You'er not what I'd call a man
Nothing on earth could satisfy me
I can do better I can
I know I can....

Don't need a lover
Don't need a man
I don't need anything
I don't need a man
I need the moon
I need a star
I need an equal to capture my heart.
