Just My Type Lyrics

Well it was springtime in Paris, but I wasn't there

I was soakin' in the thick Mississippi river air

Round the bend from the town they call Saint Lou

And it was right about the time I forgot everything that I knew

I had work to do that just wasn't getting done

But I didn't seem to mind forgettin' one by one

When I met a girl so fine and so fair

Yeah I was losing myself in every perfect curl of her hair

And I was thinkin' this girl is just my type

You say she won't but I bet she might just

Follow a guy like me all around the world

Yes well she was an artist and I was a crook

Stealin' every opportunity to look

Yes gazin' upon that sculpture of a face

She was the finest work of art in the whole dang place

Seeing her delicate hands create

Was makin' my heart just disintegrate, boy

I was in love but never took a chance to say

And I watched all the time we had just slip away

But I was thinkin' this girl is just my type

You say she won't but I bet she might just

Follow a guy like me all around the world

Follow me now

Hooooo

Hooooo

Hooooo

Well I was just sitting and twiddling my thumbs

Wondering how I ever got to be so dumb

And let girl so fine so fair slip away

And supposin' I was bound to find out why some day

When the phone finally rang from overseas

And she was sayin' she could use some company

While she wandered and wondered what the future's got in store

And you better believe that I'm bound for a foreign shore

For sure

Cause I'm thinkin' this girl is just my type

You think I won't but I'm leavin' tonight

To follow this perfect girl all around the world

Yes sir
