70's soul/funk song

Recommended Posts

There's a song I heard a while back and I just can't seem to place it. I've heard it numerous times before.

But I think it is from the seventies.

Has a very soul/funk feel to it.

I think a black band.

Might be a woman singing? (or a high pitched)

Has a sigh/grunt as a kind of hook.

VERY STACCATO!!!

And the main singing hook is along the lines of "i'll get you back"... i think haha

Any ways, thanks in advance!

Maybe it's "I Want You Back" by The Jackson 5...Michael kinda sounds like a chick....

Uh-huh huh huh huh

Let me tell ya now

Uh-huh

VERSE 1:

When I had you to myself

I didn't want you around

Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd

But someone picked you from the bunch

one glance was all it took

Now it's much too late for me to take a second look

CHORUS:

Oh baby give me one more chance

(show you that I love you)

Won't you please let me

(back in your heart)

Oh darlin' I was glad to let you go

(let you go baby)

But now since I see you in his arms

(I want you back)

Yes I do now

(I want you back)

Ooh ooh baby

(I want you back)

Ya ya ya ya

(I want you back)

Na na na na

VERSE 2:

Tryin' to live without your love

Is one long sleepless night

Let me show you girl

That I know wrong from right

Every street you walk on

I leave tearstains on the ground

Following the girl

I didn't even want around

Let me tell you now

CHORUS:

Oh baby all I need is one more chance

(show you that I love you)

Won't you please let me

(back to your heart)

Oh darlin' I was glad to let you go

(let you go baby)

But now since I can't see you any more

Uh-huh

A buh buh buh buh (2 times)

All I want

A buh buh buh buh

All I need

A buh buh buh buh

All I want

A buh buh buh buh

All I need

(Jermaine):

Oh just one more chance

to show you that I love you

baby! (6 times)

(I want you back)

(Jackie):

Forget what happened then

(I want you back)

(Jermaine):

Let me live again

Oh baby I was glad to let you go

But now since I see you in his arms

(I want you back)

(Jackie):

Spare me of this cause

(Jermaine):

Gimme back what I lost

Oh baby I need one more chance ha

I tell ya that I love you
