“You’re the One That I Want” is one of the most iconic songs from the 1978 musical film Grease, starring John Travolta as Danny Zuko and Olivia Newton-John as Sandy Olsson. Here are the lyrics to this memorable track:
You’re the One That I Want
I got chills, they’re multiplying
And I’m losing control
‘Cause the power you’re supplying
It’s electrifying!
You better shape up, ’cause I need a man
And my heart is set on you
You better shape up, you better understand
To my heart I must be true
Nothing left, nothing left for me to do
You’re the one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one I need (the one I need)
Oh, yes, indeed (yes, indeed)
If you’re filled with affection
You’re too shy to convey
Meditate in my direction
Feel your way
I better shape up, ’cause you need a man
I need a man who can keep me satisfied
I better shape up, if I’m gonna prove
You better prove that my faith is justified
Are you sure?
Yes, I’m sure down deep inside
You’re the one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one I need (the one I need)
Oh, yes, indeed (yes, indeed)
You’re the one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one I need (the one I need)
Oh, yes, indeed (yes, indeed)
You’re the one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one that I want (you are the one I want)
Oh, honey
The one I need (the one I need)
Oh, yes, indeed (yes, indeed)
This song captures the climactic moment where Sandy and Danny transform their appearances and attitudes to win each other over, embodying the theme of transformation and acceptance that runs through much of the movie.
