I need some Medicaid I seen the kingdoms of the world and it’s makin’ me feel afraid What I got ain’t painful it’s just bound to kill me dead Like the men that followed Jesus when they put a price upon His head [Chorus] I need a shot of love I need a shot of love [Verse 3] I don’t need no alibi when I’m spending time with you I’ve heard all of them rumors and you have heard ’em too Don’t show me no picture show or give me no book to read It don’t satisfy the hurt inside nor the habit that it feeds [Chorus] I need a shot of love I need a shot of love [Verse 3] Why would I want to take your life? You’ve only murdered my father raped his wife Tattooed my babies with a poison pen Mocked my God humiliated my friends [Chorus] I need a shot of love I need a shot of love [Verse 4] Don’t wanna be with nobody tonight Veronica not here Mavis just ain’t right There’s a man that hates me and he’s swift smooth and near Am I supposed to set back and wait until he’s here? [Chorus] I need a shot of love I need a shot of love [Verse 5] What makes the wind wanna blow tonight? Don’t even feel like crossing the street and my car ain’t actin’ right Called home everybody seemed to have moved away My conscience is beginning to bother me today [Chorus] I need a shot of love I need a shot of love [Outro] I need ... a shot of love I need ... (a shot of love) I need ... (a shot of love) I need ... (a shot of love) If you’re a doctor I need a shot of love (fade out)

Cette chanson évoque un profond besoin d'amour et de rédemption, alors que l'auteur rejette des solutions superficielles ou destructrices à sa douleur. Il évoque son désespoir face à un monde difficile, se remémorant les actions de ceux qui ont tourné le dos à la vertu, tout en cherchant un réconfort véritable. Dans une atmosphère de vulnérabilité, il exprime le souhait d'être comblé par un amour authentique, capable de guérir les blessures intérieures. Le contexte de la chanson peut être associé à une période de lutte personnelle et de quête de sens. Écrite dans les années 80, elle reflète une époque de désillusion, où l'individu fait face à des défis sociaux et spirituels, tout en cherchant une connexion profonde avec quelque chose de plus grand que lui.
