No Chicken on the Bone - Delbert McClinton, Self-Made Men

Listen up everybody 'cause I’ve got something to say

I might have fallen in love with a girl I just met today

I don’t quite know how to feel

I can’t believe she’s real

Got me mumbling and stumbling around in a fuzzy haze

She makes pizza at the joint on the corner of Fifth and Main

I’m going back down there, I’m gonna ask her what’s her name

Gonna tell her just how I feel

I can only hope that she’ll

Maybe smile at me and say she feels the same

My heart started pounding like a runaway train

Knees started knocking when she called my name

Ain’t nothing never never, ever gonna be the same

She’s the one that brightens up my day

The sun shines on her even when it rains

I’d say it’s plain to see

What’s happening to me

I’m a different man than I was yesterday

She’s the kind woman take away your breath

She’s the kind of woman scare you have to death

She’s the kind of woman don’t leave no chicken on the bone

She’s the kind of woman take you way up high

She’s the kind of woman set your world on fire

A woman like that, I just can’t leave alone

She’s the kind woman take away your breath

She’s the kind of woman scare you have to death

She’s the kind of woman don’t leave no chicken on the bone
