[Verse]
F# F#7
You don't drive a big fast car, no
C# C#7
You don't look a-like a movie star

Now you don't live in a beautiful place
C# C#7
And you don't dress in the best of taste

And nature didn't give you such a beautiful face
G# C#7 C#9 F#
But you got it, baby, you got what it takes, to satisfy

Now when you kiss me

My head goes around and around

Honey honey, And when you're near me,

My love comes tumblin' down, you send me (honey)
