(Daniele Alexander/Karl Hasten)

I don't need a man with money
I can pull my own weight
I can hit the movies anytime I like
I don't have to have a date
I've never had to have a man by my side
To make my life complete
Let me tell you one more thing that I don't need

I don't need a man to live with
I need a man I can't live without
Knock me off my feet when we kiss
He's gotta make my life better somehow
Don't need somebody just to fill up space
I'd rather be alone if that's the case
I don't need a man to live with
I need a man I can't live without

I don't need no knight in shining armor
Ain't no damsel in distress
But I could use a man whose love is strong
When my heart cries S.O.S.
The man I want is gonna be my lover
So he's gotta be my best friend
Or I'm alright on my own till I find him

I don't need a man to live with
I need a man I can't live without
Knock me off my feet when we kiss
He's gotta make my life better somehow
Don't need somebody just to fill up space
I'd rather be alone if that's the case
I don't need a man to live with
I need a man I can't live without

Don't need somebody just to fill up space
I'd rather be alone if that's the case
I don't need a man to live with
I need a man I can't live without

I don't need a man to live with
I need a man I can't live without
