The Jackson 5 "I Want You Back" on The Ed Sullivan Show

Uh-huh, huh, huh Just let me tell you now Uh-huh

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

Oh, baby, give me one more chance (to show you that I love you) Won't you please let me back in your heart Oh, darlin', I was blind 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) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I want you back) Na, na, na, na

Trying 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 tear stains on the ground Following the girl I didn't even want around Let me tell you now

Oh, baby, all I need is one more chance (to show you that I love you) Won't you please let me back in your heart Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go (let you go, baby) But now since I see you in his arms, uh-huh

Ah, buh bum, bum, bum Ah, buh bum, bum, bum All I want Ah, buh bum, bum, bum All I need Ah, buh bum, bum, bum All I want Ah, buh bum, bum, bum All I need

Oh, just one more chance to show that I love you Baby (baby) Baby (baby) Baby (baby)

Forget what happened then (I want you back) Let me live again

Oh, baby, I was blind to let you go But now since I see you in his arms (I want you back)

Spare me of this cause Get back what I lost

Oh, baby, I need one more chance, ha I tell ya that I love you Baby (oh), baby (oh), baby (oh) I want you back, ha I want you back
