On the dark side of the street
Just about midnight, on the way
To the bright side when she calls
She turned out the light
I'm just a beginner, when it comes
From a number on the wall
All God's children
Need someone to love
And you know, you know I found mine
I've been waiting for the one
After her, you will see me gone
I got a question answered anyway
She turned out to be
A lesson in love
A lesson in love
Bad girls cross the line
Get it for nothing any time
I am a victim of the blues
She don't know the truth
Nobody told her how to cry
She got a back against the wall
All God's children need someone to love
And you know, baby
You know I found mine
She can show me I'm the one
After me, she'll be on the run
And lightning strikes in my bedroom
The satisfaction was to me
A lesson in love
A lesson in love
All God's children
Need someone to love
And you know - baby
You know I found mine
She can show me I'm the one
After me, she'll be on the run
And lightning strikes in my
The satisfaction was to me
A lesson in love
A lesson in love
If you give your love
For the first time
You could learn more from me
It's gonna be
There are ways and means
for your pleasure
Now just you wait and see
It's gonna be
(repeat)
It's gonna, for the, for your, it's gonna be
