[Verse 1]
Well my baby's gone, so's summer
And it brings on a cool night breeze
And I wish we could go walking
By the river, by the shady trees
By the river with the shady trees

[Verse 2]
Well I love you in the wintertime
Baby when the snow is on the ground
And I love you in the autumn most of all
When the leaves come tumbling down
When the leaves come tumbling down

[Chorus]
Baby I need your kind of loving
For to last my whole life through
Baby I need your kind of loving
You know nobody else will do
You know that nobody else will do

[Verse 3]
Well I love you in the springtime
When the rippling streams begin to flow
And the weather starts to get a bit warmer
And the grass begins to grow
And the green, green grass begins to grow
[Chorus]
Baby I need your kind of loving
For to last my whole life through
Baby I need your kind of loving
You know that nobody else will do
You know that nobody else will do
Baby I need your kind of loving
For to last my whole life through
Baby I need your kind of loving
You know nobody else will do
You know nobody else will do

[Outro]
Need your kind of loving
Operator
Operator, put me through to my baby now
Operator, put me through to my baby now
To my baby now
To my baby now
Baby I need your kind of loving
