She was some kind of a girl
Skinny legs and braces
Even with an egg and spoon
She'd win all the races
She was some kind of a girl
Bluer that a moonbeam
Sweeter than a songbird
Brighter than a daydream
And when summer evenings hit the sky
And the day is holding back the night
Everything looks good about this life
She was some kind of a girl
Working in a factory
Money for the family maybe
Something for the weekend
She was some kind of a woman
Who never turned away from
Anyone in trouble or need she'd
Listen to your problem
But then something's not quiet right
Everbody's taken pieces of her life
Call her mother, call her sister, call her wife
She was some kind of a girl
Some kind of a girl
