If You Need Me, Call Me Songtext
von Emerson

If you need me
Why don′t you call me?
I'm your friend, so you can count on me again
If you need me
Why don′t you call me?
I'm your pal, and I won't let you down

I just got laid off from work
And I don′t know what to do
My bills are piling up
And the landlord is due
Shelled off notice from my gas and light
Phone bill in my stall
Like my friend Al says
If I′m in trouble, give him a call


If you need me
Why don't you call me?
I′m your friend, so you can count on me again
If you need me
Why don't you call me?
I′m your pal, and I won't let you down

Food supply is low
And there′s nowhere to go
Life is such a strain
It's getting tough on the brain
I wonder if it's real
Should I go out and steal?
This thing can′t be me
The Lord will set me free

If you need me
Why don′t you call me?
I'm your friend, so you can count on me again
If you need me
Why don′t you call me?
I'm your pal, and I won′t let you down


Huh, huh, if you need me
Why don't you call me?
I′m your friend, so you can count on me again
If you need me
And why don't you call me?
I'm your pal, and I won′t let you down

Well, I think I′ll call Al
(Hello?) Is Al there?
(Who may I say is calling?) Emerson
(Emerson?)
Tell him I'm not here
(Emerson, he′s not here at this moment)
(I'll tell him you called, bye)

If you need me (If you need me)
Why don′t you, why don't you call?
Why don′t you call me?
If you need me (If you need me)
Why don't you, why don't you call?
Why don′t you call me?

Do you ever get the feeling
When a person says
"If you need me, call me"
And they′re never there? (If you need me)
Well, I guess they don't wanna be bothered
Al, I heard you in the background
But you know, you got that
(If you need me)
I needed a favor from you
And man, you said you would come through
The same thing that happened to me
Oh yeah, can happen to you
(If you need me)
Like the old saying goes
(Why don′t you, why don't you call?)
"What goes around comes around"
(Why don′t you call me?)

If you need me, need me, need me
Why don't you, why don′t you call?
Why don't you call me?
If you need me, need me, need me
(If you need me)
Why don't you, why don′t you call?
Why don′t you call me?
(Why don't you call?)
Hey, if you need me, need me, need me
(If you need me)
Why don′t you, why don't you call?
Why don′t you call me?
(Why don't you call? Why don′t you call me?)
I don't think I'm gonna call you no more
If you need me
Why don′t, why don′t you call?
Why don't you call me?
Hey, if you need me (If you need me)
Why don′t, why don't you call me?
(Why don′t you call me?)
Hey, if you need me (If you need me)
Why don't, why don′t you call me?
(Why don't you call? Why don't you call me?)
Hey, if you need me (If you need me)
Why don′t, why don′t you call me?
(Why don't you call? Why don′t you call me?)
Hey, if you need me (If you need me)
Why don't, why don′t you call me?
