“He’s not your kind.”

They (Dm)nev er get tired of put tin’ me down, and I nev er know when I come a round

what I’m gon na find.

Don’t let them (Bb)make up your mind.

Don’t you know, (Dm)girl,

you’ll be a (C)wom

an (Dm)soon.

Please

come take my (C)hand.

(Dm)Girl,

you’ll be a (C)wom an

(Dm)soon.

Soon

you’ll need a (C)man.

I’ve been (Dm)mis un der stood for all of my life but what they’re say in’, girl, just cuts like a knife:

“The boy’s no good.”

Well, I (Dm)fi nal ly found what I’ve been look ing for, but if they get the chance, they’ll end it for sure.

Sure they would.

Ba by, I’ve (Bb)done all I could.

It’s up to you, (C)man.
