When people say, you're not my kind And that your clothes are out of line And that your hair isn't combed all the time You're not real pretty but you're mine We have a great big old society That won't make room for folks Like you and me But I got some real sad news For them my friend They're on the outside looking in We've got a great thing going And it's gonna keep right on growing And I hope that soon they'll see the light But until that time They'll have to blow their mind Cause it ain't us that's gonna lose this fight So when we're walking I don't care When all those people stop and stare If they'd look in your eyes they'd see You're not real pretty but you belong to me Hey hey hey now Hey hey hey now When you're lovin' me baby And when I hold you baby (When you kiss you) I know you love me baby (When I hold you) You know I'll never leave you (When I touch you) I know I'll always love you (Every day now) You know I love you baby You know I love you baby
