You’re a Very Lovely Woman Songtext
von Emitt Rhodes

You′re a very lovely woman but I think I'd better turn you down this time

Cause you′ve used all of your charms on me and I kind of miss the things I left behind

A girl who loves me,
Is thinking of me,
My home and friends
But you're a lovely woman
(A very lovely woman)
Lovely woman
(A very lovely woman)

And now you ask me to forget the things it took me long to get and find

And go away with you again and follow you in sin and drink your wine

I've made my mind up
I will not wind up
A life in sin

But you′re a lovely woman
(A very lovely woman)
Lovely woman
(A very lovely woman)


And oh even though you′re lovely
Your world is ugly
So come back no more
For all that you have to offer
Is not enough to ruin my life for

You're a very lovely woman,
Very lovely, yes you are

And oh even though you′re lovely
Your world is ugly
So come back no more
For all that you have to offer
Is not enough to ruin my life for

You're a very lovely woman but I think I′d better turn you down this time

Cause you've used all of your charms on me and I kind of miss the things I left behind

A girl who loves me,
Is thinking of me,
My home and friends


But you′re a lovely woman
(A very lovely woman)
Lovely woman
(A very lovely woman)
Lovely woman
(A very lovely woman)
Lovely woman
(A very lovely woman)
Lovely woman
