Robert Johnson Howard - It Takes a Girl Lyrics

Why do I always step on my own dreams?
I just can't get out of my own way
Well I'm ripped up and torn down like a pair of old jeans
Got to stop leading myself astray

Well I just don't want to bother nobody
I sure would like to meet someone new
I'm not the kind to act conspicuously
I just need some help to see this through

It takes a girl to find the girl that's right for me
I want a girl to rock my world and set me free
It's a long shot babe but can't you see how great it would be
If a girl like you would find the girl that's right for me

I'm going to clean up my act; and do what I got to do
It don't take much to polish this old shoe
I'm a little nervous about the things I should say
Give me some direction; I'll do it your way

Well I just don't want to bother nobody
I sure would like to meet someone new
I'm not the kind to act conspicuously
I just need some help to see this through

It takes a girl to find the girl that's right for me
I want a girl to rock my world and set me free
It's a long shot babe but can't you see how great it would be
If a girl like you would find the girl that's right for me

It's a long shot babe but can't you see how great it would be
If a girl like you would fall in love with me

It takes a girl to find the girl that's right for me
I want you to rock my world and set us free
It's a long shot babe but can't you see how great it would be
If a girl likes you is the girl, that's right for me
