Just a Little Bit of Love lyrics

by

Mavis Staples


[Verse 1]
You hear me callin'
Callin' brother, are you listening?
We need to cool at night for our future
For the little bitty boys and girls
We need to take a time, come together
Are you willing?
So we can make it right for the people
And everyone I love will come

[Chorus]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight
We gotta come together
We gotta come together

[Verse 2]
Everybody searchin' in confusion
No solution
We look inside ourselves for the answer
But we really don't understand
We all must be inclined
To start sharing, to start caring
And if the sun shines your way
You will find love 'cause love is the only way
[Chorus]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight
(Just a little bit, just a little bit of love)

[Rap]
Aye man, it seems so hopeful for blazin' my days
And brother, let's begin a stress off my chest with some sex
Can I get a little love for my peeps in the streets?
But this killing for colors, aye man this sh*t gotta cease, peace

Nothin', zero, zilch, amounts to what?
Nothin' but you've gotta have somethin'
'Cause we're comin', comin' correct and together eternally
And with that little bit of love, we may live forever
See it's a time to live, there's a time to die
But when the livin' gets rough, that's the time I realize
I've gotta think twice using my ears to hear (L-O-V-E)
Just love, just love, just love, just love

[Chorus]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight
Just a little bit, just a little bit of love
[Verse 3]
Now look all around you
Children dyin', people cryin', no, no
But nobody seem to care
'Til it's their time, they really don't give a damn
We've got to find a way to start loving
To start giving, yeah
But if we procrastinate and we blow it
Then everybody'll go to hell

[Chorus]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight
We gotta keep together
We gotta keep together

[Bridge]
We don't need destruction (We don't need it)
We don't need to care (No, no)
We don't need corruption
We just need to cheer (Just a little bit)
We don't need attacking (No, no)
We don't need the pain
We don't need to cry down (We don't need it)
We just need to change (Let me just a little bit)
[Chorus]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight

[Outro]
Love can, love can be
Livin' life to see
All my children free, ooh
Just a little bit of love
