[Intro]
(Boww, boww, boww)
Let me tell you now
Hey, hey now
Hey, now, now, ooh
[Verse 1]
I don't want no handsome man
'Cause he won't treat me right
Lord always flirtin' and cheatin'
Stayin' out half the night, Lord
Everybody wants him
But that don't mean it's good
I'd rather have a plain-lookin' man
Who'll love me like he should
Sing it forth I said...
[Chorus]
God's gift to women
That's what they think they are
God's gift to women
Just like a movie star
Everybody wants him
No, but that don't mean it's good
I'd rather have a plain-lookin' man
Who'll love me like he should
[Verse 2]
I said a plain man likes his lovin'
But a handsome man he makes you beg
He wants to see you crawlin'
Kneelin' by his leg, yeah
He always keeps you waitin'
Because he don't have much to give, no
He thinks you should be grateful
For havin' him to dig
[Chorus]
I said God's gift to women, no
That's what they think they are
God's gift to women
Just like a movie star, hey
Everybody wants it
No, but that don't mean it's good
I'd rather have a plain-lookin' man
Who'll love me like he should
[Verse 3]
You know a plain man will be faithful
He's into bein' true
He don't need no fancy car
He just wants to make love to you
He won't win no beauty context
But that's just not what counts
You need lots of tender lovin'
By the pound and not the ounce, girls
[Chorus]
I said God's gift to women, no
That's what they think they are
God's gift to women
Just like a movie star, hey
Everybody wants it, Lord
But that don't mean it's good
I'd rather have a plain-lookin' man
Who'll love me like he should, ooh
[Outro]
Rather have a plain-lookin' man
Who'll love me like he should, go go, yeah [?]
I'd rather have a plain-lookin' man
Who'll love me like he should
Hey, hey, hey, ooh...
