Deep Purple - Strange Kind Of Woman Lyrics






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 got to be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you, I need you, I got to 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"

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

She's my soul, I love you

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

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

Who do you think you are?
Superstar
Who do you think you are?
Superstar
Superstar
Who do we think we are?
Oh my soul, I love you baby

  7. M.... H....

    1970s: strange kind of woman

  21. E.... ....

    Good tunes this song,as all are,

  22. W.... ....

    The late 60s and all of the 70s was the golden age for rock and this song is one of the greatest from that genre

    W.... ....

    Warhawkbeyond2040...I have to correct you, the golden age of rock is from 1950 to 1980...30 years of never ending inventions !!!

    W.... ....

    @Giulio Grifi I know that but I was referring more to the prog side of rock but you are absolutely right about 30 years of never ending inventions.

  23. G.... F....

    Who are the motherfuckers who thumbed down ? What sickness do they have ?

  24. a.... i....

    I want you,i need you

  25. R.... R....

    0:55-0:57, if you are a drummer, heck, any kind of a musician you need to know how advanced this fill was for this era, I don't know, but those bands back then, all were ahead of their time, gods. Chills dudes, chills...

  26. Z.... ....

  29. J.... C....

    I bought this single when it came out in 71. It was on the harvest label. My neighbours and my folks didnt go much on it tho!! Purple 4ever!

  30. P.... ....

    Deep Purple the best Rock Band of all time!!!!!

  31. S.... S....

    GRANDE, DEEP PURPLE, THE BEST. BLACKMORE, INIGUALEBLE!!!!!!!!!

  32. E.... M....

    Deep purple: the greatest band, despite the best line-up was only few years, better than zepp and sabbath.

  33. M.... K....

    I think every man had that strange kind of woman in his life.

    M.... K....

    More than one Matyas lol.

    M.... K....

    her name was nancy..do you know what this means? it means both Deep Purple and Alestorm have a common ground. that is, they both have took their turn singing about a wench named Nancy

  38. C.... K....

    I'm one of those who find delight in hard rock mostly past the 2000-mark. But, holy shit, there are a couple of violent tunes that rock my world. This is one of them.

  39. C.... ....
