[Verse 1]
I'm about to tell a story that I haven't yet
'Bout the most intelligent woman that I ever met
She looked like Jackie Onassis
Top of her classes
I'm doin' my best just passin' by
I'm so funny in my body I can barely walk
And I'm so full of them funny feelings that I could barely talk
And here comes Jackie Onassis
Don’t need to ask it
Have you ever seen a woman so fine?
She said, "Come on out just a couple hours
We gonna have a real good time"
And I tell her, "Where ya goin', where ya goin', when are you comin' homе?"
Somebody in the front seat calls out, "Evеryone
Quit wastin' my time!
Gotta hit the road and hit the road, hit the road"
And there they go and there they go and I was on my own
[Verse 2]
I ain't never spoke my mind up in a crowded place
I ain't got no cool demeanor and smooth talkin' ways
'Cause I ain't like Jackie Onassis
Girls in sunglasses
Lookin' me up like I'm part of some game
And then the altercation happened 'round the tenth of May, ah
Some poorly dressed spectator had somethin' unkind to say
It comes back to me in flashes
I get risky, there's a swing and a miss
And I'm all ashamed oh-woah-woah so ashamed
When she found me I was in pieces
Cryin' hard into my hat
And she tell me, "Mama, you look lovely when you take a stand"
Oh and I tell her, "No one's ever been so kind to me
And I thank you for that"
She said, "Here you go and here you go and here you go"
Took her hair out the bow and laid that ribbon in my hand
[Chorus]
Here we go!
Look at that lady
She carries herself right, she's singin'
Oh, ah, woah, ah, woah, yeah
She's the first lady
To walk me through the night, I'm singin'
Oh, ah, woah, ah, woah, ah
Oh, play, play, play, play, play
[horn solo]
[Verse 3]
I got sunny days on a track field
Laughin' hard, just me and mine
I got a great part in the spring play after all yes I did
And I got my rose pink tinted glasses
And they fit me just fine
And I'll let it go and let it go and let it go
[scatting]
[Chorus]
Oh look at that lady
She carries herself right, singin'
Oh, ah, woah, ah, woah, yeah
She's the first lady
To walk me through the night, singin'
Woah, ah, woah, ah
Look at that lady, ah
She's the first lady, oh yeah
To walk me through the night, singin'
Oh, ah, woah, ah, woah
Look at that lady
That little miss thing she carries herself right, singin'
Woah, woah, woah, yeah
And she's the first to
Hold my hand, understand, oh yeah, ooh
Look at that lady, ah
She carries herself right, singin'
Woah, woah, woah
She's the first lady walk me through the night singin'
Woah, woah, woah
Ah ah ah ah
Woah ah
Ah ah ah ah, yes
