Well, look at that dog digging in the yard

What you think he's after now

His head is sagging and his tail is dragging

He's one discontented hound

Now he's staring out the fence and it doesn't make sense

What could he be thinking of

He's like a young girl waiting for the phone to ring

Everybody's looking for the same thing

And that's love

Well, people when you talk about happiness

It's a matter of degrees

I've got it better than the other guy

You've got it better than me

It's a house with heat, some food to eat

And a roof up above

But there's still something missing

It's that hugging and kissing

Everybody's looking for the same thing, sis

And that's love, that's love

You can't get it in the lost and found

It's not hidden in the closet or buried in the ground

It'll make you sing "I've got the world on a string"

That's why everybody's looking for the same old thing

Gambler's always drawing for a winning card

Rooster's out looking for a hen

Everybody's wishing on a shooting star

Me and the marines just want a few good men

But it's a well known fact that it leads the pack

When push comes to shove

And it may sound funny but I don't mean money

It makes the dark clouds lift and the days all sunny

Everybody's looking for the same thing, honey

And that's love, that's love, that's love
