She's A Lover

She’s a lover, that’s what she is, natural born

She’s a lover, that’s what she is, natural born

I can tell her from a mile away

She can’t keep that smile away from me

I can tell by everything she says

That girl’s a lover, that girl’s a lover.

She’s a lover, she’s a lover.

Out all alone with my face in the sky

I’m too lazy to sing, I’m too crazy to cry

Her father told me, her mother did too

I should have known she’d break this beat of mine in two

Cause she’s a lover, that’s what she is, she’s a lover.

She’s a lover, she’s a lover.

They come around my house, tried to shoot me

I was a fool with that little girl

I said, hey brother dear, you’ve got to understand

A certain kind of people in this world

She’s a lover

She’s a lover, a natural born lover.

Her father told me, she’s a lover

Her mother tried to tell me too

But I was a fool who loved that little girl so much

And let her break this heart of mine in two

She’s a lover, she’s a lover

She’s a lover, a natural born lover.

Moving on down the street, got no heart to talk to nobody, wondering why

Running on up the road, talking to no-one and wondering why

She’s a lover, she’s a lover

She’s a lover, she’s a lover

Natural born lover, natural born lover, natural born lover

Wondering why

Natural born lover, wondering why

Natural born lover.
