My Kind Of Woman

(album: Tony Joe White. - 1971)

I was feeling bad, kind of sad
And I did not know the cause or the reason
Then you came, walking by
And you took away that sad and lonesome feeling

All the girls was look from you, girl, you made me smile
Won't you come up close to me? Let me talk to you a while
'Cause baby, you're my kind of woman

You were stepping high, looking fine
Taking time to be a natural woman
When I looked at you that was when I knew
You were just the kind of girl that I've been wanting

You are such a lovely thing, only look at you
Come over here and talk to me, let me get to know you
'Cause baby, you're my kind of woman

I know there are lots of other guys trying to get to you
But they can't love you as good as I can, no, no, no
They know what you want but I know what you need
Now come over here to me and you will understand, oh baby

You are such a lovely thing, only look at you
Come over here and talk to me, let me get to know you
'Cause baby, you're my kind of woman
