You're All I Need to Get By Lyrics


When I was just a little girl
I wanted the world at my feet
Now all that's changed
'Cause I have love
And now I do can seeLike sweet morning dew
I took one look at you
And it was plain to see
You were my destinyWith arms open wide
I threw away my pride
I'll sacrifice for you
Dedicate my life to youI will go, where you lead
Always there in time of need
And when you lose your will
I'll be there to push you up the hillThere's no, no looking back for us
We've got love, sure enough, that's enough
You're all, you're all I need to get byLike an mother protects his nest
For you I'll do my best
Stand by you like a tree

Dare anybody to try to move meDarling in you I found
Strength where I was torn down
Don't know what's in store
But together we can open any doorJust to do what's good for you
And inspire you a little higher
Know you can make a woman
Out of the soul that didn't have a goal'Cause we, we got the right foundation
And with love and determination
You're all, you're all I want to strive for and do a little more
All, all, all the joys under the sun wrapped up intoBut you're all, you're all I need, you're all I need
You're all I need, And you're all I need to get by
All I need to get by
You're all, all I need to get by
All, all I need to get by

Diana Ross (born Diane Ernestine Earle Ross on 26 March 1944 in Detroit, Michigan, USA) is an American soul, R&B and pop singer and actress. Ross is one of the most successful female artists of her era, both due to her solo work and her role as lead singer of The Supremes during the 1960s.

In 1959, Ross was brought to the attention of Milton Jenkins, the manager of the local doo-wop group The Primes, by Mary Wilson. Primes member Paul Williams convinced Jenkins to enlist Ross in the sister group The Primettes, which included Wilson, Florence Ballard and Betty McGlown.

In 1976, Billboard magazine named her the female entertainer of the century. In 1993, The Guinness Book Of World Records pronounced her the most successful female artist ever (the title is now attributed to Madonna), partly due to her combined total of eighteen number-one singles, six of them recorded solo and the remaining dozen from her work with the Supremes.

She was also one of the few pop singers to find modest success in the acting world winning an Academy Award nomination for her role as Billie Holiday in the 1972 film, "Lady Sings the Blues" as well as having hits with other film roles such as "Mahogany", "Out of Darkness" and "Double Platinum", not to mention her role in "The Wiz".

Ms. Ross has been awarded many lifetime achievement accolades from many organizations and media outlets, including BET, Soul Train, the NAACP Image Awards, the Kennedy Center Honors in 2007 and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement in 2011.

Her professional vocal collaborators have included the following during her career: Marvin Gaye, Lionel Richie, Rod Stewart, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Julio Iglesias, Jose Carreras, Placido Domingo, Westlife, and Smokey Robinson, among others.
