[Verse 1] All over this great big city can’t find a woman who’s nice and pretty They all look like a page in a magazine Legs are long and they eat like a sparrow Figures stick to the straight and narrow Top and bottom are the same as in between. [Chorus] Show me a pretty little number when she walks she rolls like thunder Eyes as deep and dark as the deep blue sea Round right here and round right there Pretty red lips and her very own hair Wrap her up she’s the natural girl for me. [Verse 2] Way down in a coffeehouse palace met a little lady and her name was Alice She had friends and her friends had her it seems Face was dirty and her sweater was baggy Pants were tight and her hair was shaggy I’ve seen her kind on college football teams. [Chorus] Show me a pretty little number when she walks she rolls like thunder Eyes as deep and dark as the deep blue sea Round right here and round right there Pretty red lips and her very own hair Wrap her up she’s the natural girl for me. [Verse 3] Way up in a penthouse pretty thirteen miles up above the city I met lady from wealthy family she could cuss like real longshoreman She was making eyes at the doorman; she made a most unusual offer to me. [Verse 4] Way up at a Broadway party I met a little lady who was very arty She took me home to see her studio she took out her paints and whispered to me She said that she wanted to “Do me” And some of that paint will never come off I know. [Outro] Show me a pretty little number when she walks she rolls like thunder Eyes as deep and dark as the deep blue sea Round right here and round right there Pretty red lips and her very own hair Wrap her up she’s the natural girl for me. Wrap her up she’s the natural girl for me.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la recherche d'une femme authentique, loin des standards de beauté souvent irréalistes des magazines. Le narrateur apprécie les traits naturels et la simplicité des femmes qu'il rencontre, même celles qui vivent en dehors des normes conventionnelles de la mode et du luxe. Dans son parcours à travers la ville, il fait la connaissance d'Alice, une femme originale avec une personnalité franche, et d'autres rencontres qui témoignent de la diversité des femmes, chacune à sa manière belle et séduisante. Au fond, il célèbre la beauté naturelle et l'importance d'être soi-même.
