About Isn't She Pretty

"Isn't She Pretty" is a 1961 song recorded by The Temptations, and written by group members Eddie Kendricks and Otis Williams, as well as Motown's founder Berry Gordy. It was Gordy's first production with the group, and intended for released on the Miracle label, but it was shelved due to the label closing, as well as the fact that the Motown execs thought the song sounded a little too dated. It was finally released as the B-side for the group's 1962 single "Dream Come True", their first on the Gordy label imprint.

Oh
Oh, isn't she pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, pretty
Oh, isn't she a doll (She's a doll, now)

Uh huh, she's so fine. (So fine)
Gee, I wish she was mine.

Oh, isn't she pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, pretty
Oh, isn't she a doll (Hey, she's a natural doll, now)

She's the kind of girl all of my life, now.
I wanted it, to be my wife.
Because

She's got it, without a doubt.
She really knocks me out.
I can't do without her love.

Oh
Oh, isn't she pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, pretty
Oh, isn't she a doll? (Hey, she's a natural doll, now)

"Oh do you know, you know you're a pretty little thing?"
"I really want to be your man."

"No, no, no, do you know why?"

"Why?"

"You ain't got just what it takes."

Oh
Oh, isn't she pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, pretty
Oh, isn't she a doll (Hey, she's a natural doll, now)

Every time she comes near me.
My words just-a disappear.

Here she comes now.
Jus' the walk.
Listen to her sweet, sweet talk.
I can't do without her love.

Oh
Oh, isn't she pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, ah pretty, pretty
Oh, isn't she a doll (She's a doll, now)

She, so fine, so fine, so fine.
I, I wish she were mine, all mine.
She, so fine, so fine, so fine.
I, I wish she were mine, all mine.
She, so fine, so fine, so fine.
I, I wish she were mine, all mine.
