"You Don't Need A Reason" lyrics

I had a good friend
She was talking to me
She said she liked singin'
But she didn't feel free
So, I asked her the reason
Just why, she wanted to sing
She gave me a dozen
And sister, that told me everything

I said, you don't need to reason
A reason to sing
You don't need a reason
It's a natural thing (It's a natural thing)

You don't need a reason
Hon, it'll be alright
No, you don't need a reason
You got to turn on your soul light

She said she had a hang-up
With some people that she knew
She said she wanted them to like her
But they didn't want to
I just told her not to worry
'Bout turning them on (huh)
'Cause they're gonna come around
Every time you get into your song

Don't need to reason
A reason to sing
No, you don't need a reason
It's a natural thing (It's a natural thing)

You don't need a reason
Hon, it'll be alright
You don't need a reason
You got to turn on your soul light

Ain't nothing to be scared of
Hon, it'll be alright
'Cause you got yourself together
You got a beautiful soul light

And the only real friend you need
Is a rockin' good song
And before you know it
They'll all be singin' along

You don't need a reason
A reason to sing
No, you don't need a reason
It's a natural thing (It's a natural thing)

Don't need a reason
Hon, it'll be alright
You don't need a reason
You got to turn on your soul light

And you don't need a reason
Don't need a reason to sing, (reason to sing)
No, you don't need a reason
It's a natural, natural thing, (natural thing)

Don't need a reason, (because)
Hon, It'll be alright
You don't need a reason
You got to turn on your soul light
Don't need a reason
