[Verse 1: Leigh-Anne Pinnock, All, Jade Thirlwall, Jesy Nelson & [Perrie Edwards]]
Call your momma "mommy" (You gotta not!)
Askin' her for money (You gotta not!)
Never keep your house clean (You gotta not!)
Wearin' dirty laundry (You gotta not!)
Is that what you call flirtin'? (You gotta not!)
You ain't even workin', boy, get a job
And baby, when you wanna start growin' up
We can boom, boom, boom, baby, fall in love (C'mon)
Oh, you don't like kids? (You gotta not!) (Haha)
And you still smoke cigs? [Ew!] (You gotta not!)
Is you afraid of Blue's Clues? (You gotta not!) (Huh)
Do you still use a Bluetooth? (You gotta not!)
You love whitey-tighties (You gotta not!) (What?)
'Cause they only show off your muffin top (Ayy)
And baby when you wanna start growin' up
We can boom, boom, boom, baby, fall in love (Let's go!)

[Chorus: Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson & Leigh-Anne Pinnock]
I need a man
A man who can act like a man (C'mon!)
So, hear me now, I don't get paid to babysit no one (No one)
I'm out here lookin' for the one to love
Singin', I need a man (Need a man), so, hear me now

[Verse 2: Jade Thirwall, All, Leigh-Anne Pinnock & Perrie Edwards]
Oh, you don't bump to The Weeknd? (You gotta not!)
You argue with my best friend (You gotta not!) (Uh-huh)
You order hottie-toddies (Alright now) (You gotta not!)
If that's the way you party (You gotta not!)
And everybody warned me
(And everybody warned me) (You gotta not!)
But you're kinda hot, so I thought "Why not?" (Oh, well)
And baby, when you wanna start growin' up
We can boom, boom, boom, baby, fall in love (Hey!)

[Chorus: Perrie Edwards with Jade Thirlwall]
I need a man (I need a man)
A man who can act like a man (A man)
So, hear me now, I don't get paid to babysit no one (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
I'm out here lookin' for the one to love
Singin', I need a man, so, hear me now

[Post-Chorus: All, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Perrie Edwards & Jade Thirlwall]
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah (Hey, hey)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah (Nah, nah) (Hey, hey)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah (Hey, hey)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah) (Uh-huh)

[Pre-Bridge: Leigh-Anne Pinnock]
All my ladies! If you need a man, sing!

[Bridge: Perrie Edwards, All & Jesy Nelson]
Call your momma "mommy" (You gotta not!)
Askin' her for money (You gotta not!) (Haha!)
And baby when you wanna start growin' up
We can boom, boom, boom, baby, fall in love (Boom, boom, boom, oh) (Hey!)

[Chorus: Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinnock with Jade Thirlwall]
I need a man (Yeah)
A man who can act like a man
(Who can act like a ma-a-a-an)
So, hear me now, I don't get paid to babysit no one (No one)
I'm out here lookin' for the one to love (No, oh)
Singin', I need a man, so, hear me now (Ayy!)

[Post-Chorus: All, Leigh-Anne Pinnock & Perrie Edwards]
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah (Nah, nah, nah)
(So, hear me now)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah (Oh, yeah)
(So, hear me now)

[Outro: Leigh-Anne Pinnock & Jesy Nelson]
I need, I need a man
I need, I need a man (I need a ma-a-a-a-a-an)
I need, I need a man
I need (I need a man), I need a man
I need a man
