Her soul
I saw a girl walk by the other day
Her majesty blew my mind away
Made a move to meet ‘er ‘cause - wow!
I ain’t never gonna leave her now
She’s as fine as sassafras
Mmm, bare feet on fresh cut grass
Makes me feel like the richest king
Hear the bells in my head ring?
Do you realize what you’ve done to me, girl?
Set me on fire, spun around my world
Do you think I’ll be the same anymore?
Walk in those old shoes I wore?
Well I won’t, you know I won’t!
Gonna be a diff’rent man - woo!
Gonna follow you around
Gonna lay my money down
Gonna act a fool ‘cause I’m in love with - you!
Did you see my girl when she walked by?
She’s as hot as a forest fire
Turnin heads and knockin’ knees
Leavin’ crowds buzzin’ like bumble bees
Boys are jealous and girls are sad
When she wears solids, stripes or plaid
She could make an old rag look good
Revitalize any neighborhood
Do you realize what you’ve done to me, girl?
Set me on fire, spun around my world
Do you think I’ll be the same anymore?
Walk in those old shoes I wore?
Well I won’t, you know I won’t!
Gonna be a diff’rent man - woo!
Gonna follow you around
Gonna lay my money down
Gonna act a fool ‘cause I’m in love with - you!
Ever wanna stay in one place?
I get that way when I see her face
It glows like the sun, sends clouds away
Makes the music in my body play
She takes me to new heights
Turns cold days into warm nights
Like a fire in the fireplace
Is my being in her embrace
Do you realize what you’ve done to me, girl?
Set me on fire, spun around my world
Do you think I’ll be the same anymore?
Walk in those old shoes I wore?
Well I won’t, you know I won’t!
Gonna be a diff’rent man - woo!
Gonna follow you around
Gonna lay my money down
Gonna act a fool ‘cause I’m in love with - you!
Obstacles gone, she broadens my range
Never stop explorin’, gonna see some change
Hearts together on the wind adrift
Her smile, it makes my spirit lift
There’s just something about her soul
Sweet jelly on a breakfast roll
Icing on the cake, ice in the tea
I wonder what she sees in me?
Do you realize what you’ve done to me, girl?
Set me on fire, spun around my world
Do you think I’ll be the same anymore?
Walk in those old shoes I wore?
Well I won’t, you know I won’t!
Gonna be a diff’rent man - woo!
Gonna follow you around
Gonna lay my money down
Gonna act a fool ‘cause I’m in love with - you!
