You're All I Need to Get By by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell is featured in I Do, the fourteenth episode of Season Four. It is sung by Jake and Marley, with the New Directions Boys (except Blaine and Joe) singing backup.
When Jake discusses his Valentine's gift for Marley with Ryder, Ryder gives Jake a perfect idea. In History Class, Marley watches as Ryder continuously taps his pen, Marley is curiously asking what's going on but when Jake comes in with a pink suit and Ryder and Jake do a small role play, Marley laughs as the song dedicated to her begins. The band at the back of the class play as more New Directions Boys enter the classroom as they dance and serenade Marley. Together, Jake and Marley sing and kiss each other on the cheek as the boys do back-up, Ryder keeping an eye on Marley's happiness. Will eventually joins in the dance towards the ending of the song and the boys throw roses at Jake and Marley.
At the end of the performance, the class applauds them as they share a kiss and a hug. Ryder, on the other hand, seems a bit disheartened while watching Jake and Marley.
Lyrics[]
New Directions Boys:
You're all I need to get by, ahh
You're all I need to get by, ahh
Jake (New Directions Boys):
(You're all I need to get by, ahh) Like the sweet morning dew, I took one look at you,
And it was plain to see,
You were my destiny.
New Directions Boys:
You're all I need to get by, ahh
Marley:
With my arms open wide,
I threw away my pride
I'll sacrifice for you
Dedicate my life for you (Jake: Oh oh)
I will go where you lead (Jake: Come on baby)
Always there in time of need (Jake: Oh Oh Oh)
Jake:
And when I lose my will
You'll be there to push me up the hill
Jake and Marley:
There's no, no looking back for us
We got love sure 'nough, that's enough
You're all, you're all I need to get by
New Directions Boys:
You're all I need to get by, ahh (Jake: Hey, yeah) (Marley: Ooh)
Jake (New Directions Boys):
(You're all I need to get by, ahh) Listen, like an eagle protects his nest, for you I'll do my best,
Stand by you like a tree, dare anybody to try and move me
Marley (New Directions Boys):
(You're all I need to get by, ahh)
Darling in you I found
Strength where I was torn down
Don't know what's in store but together we can open any door (Jake: Oh baby)
Just to do what's good for you (Jake: Come on darlin') and inspire you a little higher (Jake: Come on baby)
Jake:
I know you can make a man
Out of a soul that didn't have a goal
Jake and Marley:
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
You're all, all the joys
Under the sun wrapped up into one
You're all, you're all I need
You're all I need
Marley:
You're all I need
Jake:
Oh, to get by
Marley:
Alright
New Directions Boys:
You're all I need to get by
Marley:
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, say yeah
Jake:
Honey, honey, honey
Jake and Marley:
Honey, yeah!
New Directions Boys:
You're all I need to get by, ahh
Jake:
I need you darling
Marley:
I need you darling
You're all I need
New Directions Boys:
You're all I need to get by
Jake:
You're all I need (Marley: Wooo Oh!)
New Directions Boys:
You're all I need to get by
Marley:
You're all I need, baby
Alright now, Woo!
Jake and Marley:
You're all I need to get by
