Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, baby, can we sit down and talk for a minute
You know that we’ve got a few things we need to work out, oh...yeah
You can spare me all your sorry details
Had enough of all your lies and my silent cries

Hurry-hurry, quick-quick
(I need a man who’s gonna do me right)
Hurry-hurry, quick-quick
(Somebody who will surely satisfy)

When I think of your love
(It only makes me stop and wonder, truly)
Why, oh, why (Oh, why)
Why would you make me cry, oh, baby

5 miles to empty
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh
I need a good man to fill me up
I need a good man to give me lovin’

5 miles to empty
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh
I need a good man to fill me up
I need a good man to give me love

We spend so much time, we’re always fightin’ desperately tryin’ for love
We know won’t last much longer, no-no, my baby
Such a waste of time when we’re prayin’ though
Some are sayin’ that we won’t last much longer than a day, no-no-no-no-no

Hurry-hurry, quick-quick
(I need a man who’s gonna do me right)
Hurry-hurry, quick-quick
(Somebody who is gonna satisfy my needs)

When I think of your love
(It only makes me stop and wonder truly)
Why, oh, why (Oh, why)
How could you make me cry, oh, baby

5 miles to empty
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh
I need a good man to fill me up
I need a good man to give me lovin’ (Baby)

5 miles to empty (Hey...hey...)
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh
I need a good man to fill me up (Ooh, yeah)
I need a good man to give me love

5 miles to empty
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh
I need a good man to fill me up
I need a good man to give me love

5 miles to empty
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh
I need a good man to fill me up
I need a good man to give me love

Hurry-hurry, quick-quick
(Oh, I need a man who will promise to always do right)
Hurry-hurry, quick-quick
(Oh, I’m lookin’ for someone who’s gonna satisfy)

When I think of your love
(It only makes me stop and wonder truly)
Why, oh, why (Oh, why, oh...)
Why would you make me cry, oh, baby

5 miles to empty (Yeah, yeah)
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh (Oh)
I need a good man to fill me up
I need a good man to give me lovin’

5 miles to empty
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh
I need a good man to fill me up
I need a good man to give me love

5 miles to empty
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh
I need a good man to fill me up
I need a good man to give me lovin’

5 miles to empty
My heart is runnin’ low, whoa, oh
I need a good man to fill me up
