Kind of Woman Lyrics

[00:01.31] When I first saw Pippin
[00:03.72] He was lying by the side of the road
[00:06.93] He didn't know where he was
[00:09.69] And he looked so exhausted
[00:12.58] And lost-ed
[00:16.08] You'd almost swear he was dead
[00:19.66] So I said, pick him up
[00:22.70] Put him to bed
[00:24.53] See that he's bathed and clothed and fed
[00:28.44] You may ask, how could I foretell
[00:32.06] He'd clean up, oh, so very well?
[00:36.09] But it was no surprise
[00:39.38] When I raised my eyes
[00:42.00] And there he was
[00:46.34]
[00:51.39] I'm your average, ordinary
[00:56.46] Kind of woman
[00:59.74] Competent and neat
[01:03.09] Making life a treat
[01:05.79] Others as nice
[01:08.13] You meet often, I know
[01:11.80] At least once or twice
[01:14.16] Every lifetime or so
[01:17.90] I'm your everyday, customary
[01:21.77] Kind of woman
[01:25.19] Practical as salt
[01:28.34] Ah, modest to a fault
[01:30.80] Conservative with a budget
[01:34.21] Liberal with a meal
[01:37.99] Just your average ideal
[01:43.21] My telling you this
[01:46.12] May seem sudden and strange
[01:51.10] It may not interest you much at all right now
[01:56.63] But things change
[02:00.75] Things change
[02:04.40] Still I'll understand if I'm not your
[02:08.52] Kind of woman
[02:11.92] Anyone can make
[02:15.05] One terrible mistake
[02:17.22] And I've no special glamour
[02:20.67] No bait I can twirl
[02:23.70] 'Cause I'm just a plain, everyday
[02:27.39] Commonplace, come-what-may
[02:31.05] Average, ordinary
[02:37.78] Wonderful
[02:38.19] Girl! (What a wonderful girl!)
[02:49.55]
