[Intro]
Hey fellas, look over there
[Verse 1]
See that woman over there
With the long pretty hair
Don't she look good? (Yeah)
Don't she look good? (Yeah)
And see that woman that just drove by then
With her hair blowing in the wind
Didn't she look good? (Yeah)
Didn't she look good? (Yeah)
See that woman going to church, huh
All dressed up in her mini-skirt, woo!
She looks good (Yeah)
Don't she look good? (Yeah)
And see that woman eating her lunch
She's got skin you'd love to touch
Don't she look good? (Yeah)
Don't she look good? (Yeah)
[Interlude]
Listen
[Verse 2]
You better keep the woman you got
I know the other one looks good to you
But she might not be as good as she looks
Ain't it the truth, Lord? (Yeah)
It's the truth
Girls, listen
Let me show you something, huh
See that man dressed in his Nehru
He's got pockets of money to give you
Don't he look good?
Ha-ha! (Yeah)
Don't he look good? (Yeah)
And see that man across the street
With those alligator shoes on his feet
Oh, the man is lookin' good (Yeah)
He looks good (Yeah)
And see that man over to your right
He throws big parties every night
The man is good (Yeah)
Don't he look good? (Yeah)
And check that man over to your left, huh
All the women say he's kinda stuck on his self
Oh, the man know he's lookin' good (Yeah)
He's lookin' good, he-he-he-he! (Yeah)
[Verse 3]
But you better keep the same man you got
I know the other one looks good to you
But he might not be as good as he looks
Ain't it the truth, y'all? (Yeah)
It's the truth
