Strange Kind Of Woman by Deep Purple

Blackmore/gillan/glover/lord/paice

There once was a woman
A strange kind of woman
The kind that gets written down in history
Her name was nancy
Her face was nothing fancy
She left a trail of happiness and misery

I loved her
Everybody loved her
She loved everyone and gave them good return
I tried to take her
I even tried to break her
She said i ain't for takin' won't you ever learn

I want you i need you i gotta be near you
I spent my money as i took my turn
I want you i need you i gotta be near you
Ooh i got a strange kind of woman

She looked like a raver
But i could never please her
On wednesday mornings boy you can't go far
I couldn't get her
But things got better--she said
Saturday nights from now on baby you're my star

She finally said she loved me
I wed her in a hurry
No more callers and i glowed with pride
I'm dreaming
I feel like screaming
I won my woman just before she died

I want you i need you i gotta be near you
I spent my money as i took my turn
I want you i need you i gotta be near you
Ooh i had a strange kind of woman
