i want a woman lyrics

C'mon baby
C'mon baby, yeah

Don't wanna talk about it
And I don't wanna 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 you, 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 proof is I can get
I take you up north and then you wanna 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)

I'm thinkin' now down the week so much
Think the chances that, that woman's touch

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

Red dress
(I want a woman)
Groovy lips, shake those hips
(I want a woman)

With high heels, c'mon baby
(I want a woman)
What a scene, you'll be my wildest dreams, yeah
(I want a woman)
