Sadie made it down in hollywood

She worked real hard and she did real good

Now the years are finally coming down

Oh, though she owns this whole town



She's living and she's dying

She spent her whole time trying

Seems like even when you do it

Then you find out you can go right through it



Everybody needs a lover

Everybody needs a friend

Everybody needs a lover

To keep them moving 'til the end



Stevie won it all in rock and roll

Had it right down in his soul

Still has to face the day

Oh, some blues won't play









He's living and he's dying

He's spent his whole life trying

Seems like even when you do it

Then you find out you can go right through it



Everybody needs a lover

Everybody needs a friend

Everybody needs a lover

To keep them moving 'til the end



Buy the papers and i read them all day

Wonder when they're gonna blow it away

Working hard just to keep myself sane

But some days it's all pain



Everybody needs a lover

Everybody needs a friend

Everybody needs a lover

To keep them moving 'til the end
