(She’s a) Very Lovely Woman Songtext
von Linda Ronstadt

She′s a very lovely woman
But I think you'd better turn her down this time
′Cause she's used all of her charms on you, and
Soon you'll miss the things you left behind

The girl who loves you is thinking of you
Home and friends

But she′s a lovely woman
A lovely woman

And now she wants you to forget
The things that took us long to get and find
And go away with her again, and
Follow her in sin and drink her wine

Make your mind up
Do not wind up
A life in sin

But she′s a lovely woman
A lovely woman


So even though she's lovely
Her world is ugly, so go back no more
For all that she has to offer
Is not enough to ruin our lives
Oh, no

She′s a very lovely woman
Very lovely, yes she is

So even though she's lovely
Her world is ugly, so go back no more
For all that she has to offer
Is not enough to ruin our lives
Oh, no

She′s a very lovely woman
But I think you'd better turn her down this time
′Cause she's used all of her charms on you, and
Soon you'll miss the things you left behind

The girl who loves you is thinking of you
Home and friends

But she′s a lovely woman
A lovely woman

A lovely woman
A lovely woman


Baby, oh baby
Tell the man at the ticket stand that you′ve changed your mind
Let me run on out and tell the cab to keep the meter flying
'Cause if you say goodbye, babe, you′re gonna break my mind

Break my mind, break my mind
Well, I just can't stand to hear the big jet engines whine
Break my mind, break my mind, oh Lord
Well, if you leave, you′re gonna leave a babbling fool behind

Oh, baby
Well, let me take your suitcase off of that scale in time
Just tell the man that you suddenly developed a thing about high flying
'Cause if you say goodbye to me, you know you′re gonna break my mind

Break my mind, break my mind
Well, I just can't stand to hear the big jet engines whine
Break my mind, break my mind, oh Lord
Well, if you leave, you're gonna leave a babbling fool behind

Break my mind, break my mind
Well, I just can′t stand to hear the big jet engines whine
Break my mind, break my mind, oh Lord
Well, if you leave, you′re gonna leave a babbling fool behind

Well, if you leave, you're gonna leave a babbling fool behind
