She’s a different kind of lady
She’s not often understood
She’s a doin’ kind of lady
And what she’s doin’ does some good

But she lonely
But she lonely
She lonely
But she lonely

Free and easy kind of lady
And the books she reads are good
Let me be me kind of lady
And she’s being what she should

But she lonely
She lonely
Pretty little girl is lonely
She lonely
Yeah, pretty little girl is lonely
It’s a well kept secret
Pretty little girl is lonely
Pretty little girl is lonely

She’s a different kind of lady
She’s not often understood
She’s a doin’ kind of lady
And what she’s doin’ does some good

But she lonely
But she lonely
She lonely
But she lonely
