about

Written by Andy Furgeson/Red Yarn. Produced by Dean Jones.

lyrics

Once upon a time, a family of rabbits was living in a big backyard
In a burrow in the corner underneath the pine tree
Life was good but living was hard
Brother and sister would get up every morning
Set out to find a way
To dig up a little lunch and have themselves a good time
They knew at the end of the day

CHORUS:
They had someone to love
They had someone to love
No matter how rough it got
No matter how tough
Well, they still had someone to love

A raccoon and a possum were living in a treehouse
Up above a garden shed
They didn't have much beyond what they needed
A roof and a friend and a bed
They'd sleep away the day and go out in the evening
Ramble round the neighborhood
To scrounge a little dinner and make a little trouble
Stumble home feeling good

CHORUS

Maybe baby someday the blues are gonna get you
Catch you when your guard is down
The blues have got a way of always standing next to you
Following you all around
But just remember baby, there's someone else beside you
Someone who can hold your hand
But first you gotta dig down and find the strength inside you
To admit you're gonna need a friend

You need someone to love
You need someone to love
No matter how tough
You think you'll do without that stuff
Well, you still need someone to love

You got someone to love
You got someone to love
No matter how rough it gets
No matter how tough
Well, you still got someone to love...
