Don't Need A Man To Make Me Feel Like A Woman Leon sent me a song idea with Janice in mind.
It was an interesting lyric! – just had to fit lines such as:
Like a fish needs a velocipede Had to look that one up on Wikipedia.
Fortunately for us Janice kindly agreed to sing – Leon obviously channeled his feminine side whilst writing this but I’m not sure it would have sounded right with him singing.
Lyrics – Leon
Vocals -the incomparable Janice Merritt
I played the guitar and put it all together
Thanks to Bud for recording Janice, feedback on the mix and encouragement.

Horns – some old horn samples I had lying around
Don’t need a man to make me feel like a womanYou think that ladies love outlaws
But honey let me set you straight
What gets my temperature rising
Listen up, and I will relate
I need a man I can talk to
Who understands what I need
Not a stud with only one talent
I got to care for and feed
I don’t need a man to make me feel like a woman
Just need a man I can rely on to be true
I don’t need a man to make me feel like a woman
Just need a man I can rely on to be trueI’m looking for a man who’s not afraid
To reveal his softer side
A man who knows just when to push
And when to let it slide
I need a man who’s not a stranger
To poetry and art
Who’s gentle, kind and sensitive
But with a lion’s heart
I don’t need a man to make me feel like a woman
Just need a man I can rely on to be true
I don’t need a man to make me feel like a woman
Just need a man I can rely on to be trueYou think that ladies love outlaws
Oh, but that’s been overstated
A lady wants a man to make her life
Easier, not more complicated
Some say a woman needs a man
Like a fish needs a velocipede
And while I don’t agree
There are certain qualities I need
You’ve got to treat me like an equal in every way
Pick up on the subtle signs I send
Pay close attention to every word I say
Be my demon lover as well as my best friend
I don’t need a man to make me feel like a woman
Just need a man I can rely on to be true
I don’t need a man to make me feel like a woman
Just need a man I can rely on to be true
