When I saw you buying Cosmo in a Hot Rod magazine
I said to myself, now there's a girl for me
And when I asked you to go for a ride
You stole my heart when you said, if I can drive
I said,
how about some music,
you said you got any Merle
That's when I knew you were my kind of girl
When we started talking I could not believe my ears
You said you were a Braves fan even through the rotten years
You quoted William Faulkner and Martin Luther King
You said your favorite movie star would always be James Dean
And when we went to dinner you wore blue jeans with your pearls
That's when I knew you were my kind of girl
You marched to the beat of a different drum
The funny thing is that I hear the same one
We both like to color outside of the lines
We're peas in a pod, girl, we're two of a kind
I said I think I love you and you said, what's
not to love I thought about a kiss but I wasn't quick
enough I guess while I was thinking you were reading
my mind Cos you wrapped your arms around me and you
pressed your lips to mine You sent my head spinning just like a tilde
whirl That's when I knew you were my kind of girl
You sent my head spinning just like a tilde whirl
That's when I knew you were my kind of girl
I knew that it was you, my kind, my kind of girl
