Homely Girl Lyrics

Jackie Robinson

Homely girl, used to be lonely.

It must have broke your poor little heart,
When the boys used to say;
You looked better in the dark.
But now they'd give all they learnt in school,
To be somewhere in the dark with you.

The teacher would ask the questions,
And you, would always raise your hand.
Ooh.. but somehow you never got your turn,
And my eyes would fill with water, inside I'd burn.
Oh yes, I did.
Homely girl, she was so lonely;
You're a beautiful woman, oh yes you are.
Homely girl, you used to be so lonely;
You're a beautiful woman, oh yeah.

There was a boy who used to sit beside you
Who'd like to hold that place his whole life through.
Ooh,.. you were beautiful to me,
You had a heart no one could ever see, oh yes you did.

I was the only one who offered, to carry your books.
Took all the stares and laughter and the dirty looks.
'Cause I saw then, what they see now,
They all want to ask you for a date.
They don't know how, they don't know how.

Hey! Homely, girl, she was so lonely;
You're a beautiful woman, oh yeah.
Homely girl, you used to be lonely;
You're a beautiful woman, ooh yea, ooh hoo;
You're a beautiful woman.
