That Kinda Girl

(Album: Free At Last - 1992)

The other night I met a girl
And she looked to be so nice
I asked her for the digits
And she didn't think twice
A couple of days later called her up and asked her out
She said,'with you?' I said, 'with me,'
And then she said, 'without a doubt'
I took her to the Garden where
I guess they grow the Olives
She wore a tighter skirt
Than any I had seen in college
She said, 'I love to smoke and drink
While cursing like a sailor'
I asked her where she got her mouth
And if she had a tailor
Finally I walked her to the door to say goodnight
She said, 'I am an apple,
Would you care to take a bite?'
Politely I refused and said, 'I'm looking for a lady'
So she slapped me in my face and said,
'Boy, you must be crazy'

Different from the ones before
Different from the ones before, she's that kinda girl
Different from the ones before,
Cause I know she loves the Lord
She's that kinda girl, virtuous in every way
The kinda girl that makes you say,
'I hope she comes my way'

Well I'm looking for a girl who virtuous
Cause God laid it on my heart to search for this
So I open up the Word to the book of Proverbs
The 31st chapter tells me all about her
Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain
A woman who fears the Lord, she ain't playing
Hear what I'm saying, cause I'm saying it clearly
She's the kinda girl I gots to have near me

She's that kinda girl. Different from the ones before
Cause I know she loves the Lord
She's that kinda girl, virtuous in every way,
The kinda girl that makes you say...

Well I'm looking into hooking with a lady
And not a girly of the worl'y that's shady
But the kinda girl you meet
Behind the doors of a church
Ya see, God will bring her to me
So I don't have to search
Too hard I've been scarred by the ones of the past
So put an APB out on the one that will last
A little longer than a roll in the hay for sure
But a bona fide lady's what I'm praying for

When I finally meet her, I'll know how to treat her
By fulfilling all her needs
Love her and respect her, cherish her forever
She's the kinda girl for me

She's that kinda girl
Different from the ones before,
Cause I know she loves the Lord
She's that kinda girl, perfect for each other
There'll never be another for me
She's that kinda girl, virtuous in every way
The kinda girl that makes you say
'I hope she comes my way'

Heaven help me, hear my plea
I know there's one who's perfect for me

When I finally meet her, I'll know how to treat her,
By fulfilling all her needs
Love her and respect her, cherish her forever
She's the kinda girl for me

She' the kinda girl for me, the kinda girl for me
She' the kinda girl for me
She' the kinda girl for me, the kinda girl for me
She' the kinda girl for me, I pray she come's my way

She's that kinda girl
Different from the ones before
Cause I know she loves the Lord
She's that kinda girl, virtuous in every way
The kinda girl that makes you say...

She's that kinda girl
(ya know what I'm saying)
Different from the ones before
She's the one that I adore
She's that kinda girl
(hey, the girly aint playin')
virtuous in every way
The kinda girl that makes you say
'I hope she comes my way'
