Don't want to talk about it And I don't want to hear what's for sale Just move on baby Time has got you by the tail Your tail You don't know what you got till it's already gone And now this gone as you can get I try to reason with you but there's no reason at all While I'm banging my head up against a brick wall I want a woman Not some little girl Who had to grow up In daddy's big world I want a woman Who can really love me, yeah Dead ringer of a woman You think I'm like a truck Even I ain't gonna walk on glass Well no chance I try to love ya baby But sometimes you're just a pain in the ass The problem with you is that I can't get through And all this proves is I can get I take you up north and then you want to go south You're just leaving another bad taste in my mouth I want a woman Not some little girl Who had to grow up In daddy's big world I want a woman Who knows how to love me, yeah Baby that's what I want I want a woman Not the teacher's pet Who tried to grow up But hasn't made it quite yet I want a woman Who makes me feel like nobody can I want those legs Groovy lips (I want a woman) With high heels Shake those hips (I want a woman) Red dress What a scene (I want a woman) C'mon baby You'll be my wildest dreams, yeah!

(I want a woman)
