I been feelin' very weak, I been turnin' pretty pale First I'm fallin' to my knees, then I'm hangin' by my tail Asked the doctor for some medicine He said there's nothin' we can do Preacher said it's gonna kill you son Mama dropped the chicken soup [Chorus] I'm gonna need a little help, help, help While I'm getting' over you I'm just a flicker of my self, self, self Your hurt has cooled my fire into If you could spare a little touch, touch, touch I might survive a week or two I'm gonna need a little help, help, help While I'm getting' over you Ever since you made me leave, can't remember wrong or right When I'm up I wanna sleep, When I'm asleep I wanna fight Dialled the number for emergency, sheriff said to tough it out I called my psychic friend on channel three And she confirmed without a doubt [Chorus] Bells are ringin' in my ears, wolf is howlin' in the yard But the only thing I hear is the poundin' of my heart I saw my picture in the evening news, I had a caption by my head They polled the people for the public view And nearly everybody said [Chorus: x2] I'm gonna need a little help, help, help While I'm getting' over you I'm gonna need a little help, help, help I'm gonna need a little help, help, help
