Lyrics
There once was a woman
A strange kind of woman
The kind that gets written down in history
Her name was Nancy
Her face was nothing fancy
She left a trail of happiness and misery
I loved her
Everybody loved her
She loved everyone, and gave them good return
I tried to take her
I even tried to break her
She said, "I ain't for takin' won't you ever learn?"
I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you
Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman, oh
She looked like a raver
But, I could never please her
On Wednesday mornings, boy, you can't go far
I couldn't get her
But things got better, she said
"Saturday nights from now on, baby, you're my star"
I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you
Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, my soul, I love you
I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you
Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman
She finally said she loved me
I wed her in a hurry
No more callers, and I glowed with pride
I'm dreaming
I feel like screaming
I won my woman just before she died
I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you
Ooh, I had a strange kind of woman
