There once was a woman 
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 gotta be near you I spent my money as I took my turn 
I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman, yes I have 

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 gotta be near you I spent my money as I took my turn I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman Ooh, my soul, I love you I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you I spent my money as I took my turn I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you Ooh, I got a strange kind of woman, yes I have She finally said she loved me I wed her in a hurry No more callers and I glow with pride I'm dreaming I feel like screaming I won my woman just before she died I want you, I need you, I gotta be near you I spent my money as I took my turn I want you, I need you, ha ha ha Ooh, I had a strange kind of woman, yeah She was so fat She was the worst thing you've ever seen Ooh, my soul, I love you, baby - Hey, thank you, thank you.
