[Verse 1: Stevie Wonder]
Miss Lady Girl
Is putting her love on the shelf
Cause she don't want
To be hurt by nobody else
She's taken her heart
And put it away under lock and key
But it's high time
Miss Lady Girl sets her heart free and gives her love to me, yeah

[Pre-Chorus: Michael Jackson]
But some think that diamond rings, fancy cars
Will make a big impression, yeah, ha! Dah
But I know that all she needs is my tender
Love and affection
Cause she still says

[Chorus]
That no one's gonna get it (Dah)
No one's gonna get it, oh no
But someone's gotta get it
And I feel that I will be the one who will (Hee-hee! Hee-hee! Aaow!)
No one's gonna get it (Dah) (Da-da-da) (Ooh!)
No one's gonna get it, oh no (Da-da-da)
But someone's gotta get it (Da-da-da)
And I know that I will be the one who will (Hee-hee! Hee-hee! Aaow!)
Gonna get it, her love
Gonna get it, her kisses
Gonna get it, her heart
Gonna get it, get it

[Verse 2: Michael Jackson]
Miss Lady Girl, ha! Dah
Has buried her feelings deep inside
Cause she don't want, ah, dah
To be taken for another ride
She's sick and tired, ha!
Of being on that lonely merry-go-round
She just don't know, dah
That the ultimate love
Of her life is about to be found, hoo!

[Pre-Chorus: Stevie Wonder]
They think that ready cash, flashy clothes
Will fill her life with laughter
But I've got the very thing that she needs
True love forever after
Then no more will she say

[Chorus]
That no one's gonna get it
No one's gonna get it, oh no
But someone's gotta get it
And I feel that I will be the one who will
No one's gonna got it
No one's gonna get It, oh no
But someone's gonna get it
And I know that I will be the one who will
I'm gonna get it (I'm gonna get it)
I'm gonna get it (You ain't gonna get it)
(I'm gonna get it)
(You ain't gonna get it)
(I'm gonna get it)
(I'm gonna get it)
Gonna get it, gonna get it
Gonna get it, get it, aaow!
I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
Gonna get it, gonna get it
Gonna get it, gonna get it
Hoo! Hoo!
I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
You ain't gonna get it
You know, dah, ah, hoo!
Aaow!
I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
I'm gonna get it
I'm gone gonna get it

Despite losing his sight at a young age, Stevie Wonder went on to become one of the most celebrated soul songwriters of the late 20th century. His songs manage to both innovate and catch the ears of listeners of all dispositions, whilst also being big chart hits.

Incredibly influential amongst musical circles, his voice rendered modern British soul-songwriter James Morrison close to tears the first time he heard it.
