Lyrics
Ordinary Girl
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So he buys her flowers and
diamond rings
Tries to turn her head around in a
million ways
I realise that it's hard to resist
his attention
But she just ignores the kinda things
he says
She's an ordinary girl
She don't wanna change the world
She still loves me all she can
I'm her ordinary man
If I had the chance to start all over
I know she's the kind I'll still be
looking for
Just an ordinary girl
She don't wanna change the world
And she's givin' all she can
To her ordinary man
I don't know why, why she should
make me feel so fine
I couldn't give an explanation if I tried
She don't fool around, given temptation
Even though I know he'd like to
steal her away
Every time he tries, to his frustration
She just turns her head and looks
the other way
She's an ordinary girl
She don't wanna change the world
And she's givin' all she can
To her ordinary man
Just an ordinary girl
She don't wanna change the world
And I give her all I can
I'm her ordinary man
Ordinary girl
I don't wanna change her world
cso she loves me all she can
Just an ordinary man
She's an ordinary girl
She don't wanna change the world
And she's doin' all she can
For her ordinary man
