Lyrics: Gary U.S. Bonds. She Chose to Be My Lady.

(G. Bonds) Bonds Anderson Music Publishing (BMI)

WELL, SHE COULD'VE BEEN A BEAUTY QUEEN
ON THE COVER OF MAGAZINES
A BIG STAR ON THE SILVER SCREEN
BUT, SHE CHOSE TO BE MY LADY

SHE COULD'VE BEEN DOING GOOD
MAYBE LIVING IN HOLLYWOOD
IF SHE HAD LEFT I WOULD'VE UNDERSTOOD
BUT SHE CHOSE TO BE MY LADY

JUST LOOK AT HER
STANDING THERE LOOKING LIKE THE MONA LISA
THE PRETTIEST THING I EVER DID SEE
YOU GUYS ARE ALL WAITING FOR A CHANCE TO MEET HER

WELL, YOU CAN JUST THROW THAT THOUGHT
RIGHT OUT OF YOUR MIND
'CAUSE THAT GIRL BELONGS TO ME

SHE COULD'VE BEEN DOING NICE
BUT SHE MADE THE SACRIFICE
AND WITHOUT EVEN THINKING TWICE
SHE CHOSE TO BE MY LADY

SHE COULD'VE HAD EVERYTHING
FUR COATS AND DIAMOND RINGS
RIDING AROUND IN LIMOUSINES

BUT, SHE CHOSE TO BE MY LADY

*Sax Solo

JUST LOOK AT HER
STANDING THERE LOOKING LIKE THE MONA LISA
THE PRETTIEST THING I EVER DID SEE
YOU GUYS ARE WAITING FOR A CHANCE TO MEET HER

WELL, YOU CAN JUST THROW THAT THOUGHT
RIGHT OUT OF YOUR MIND
THAT GIRL BELONGS TO ME
THAT GIRL BELONGS TO ME

SHE COULD'VE BEEN DOING GOOD
MAYBE LIVING IN HOLLYWOOD
IF SHE HAD LEFT I WOULD'VE UNDERSTOOD
BUT SHE CHOSE TO BE MY LADY

SHE COULD'VE BEEN DOING NICE
BUT SHE MADE THE SACRIFICE
AND WITHOUT EVEN THINKING TWICE
SHE CHOSE TO BE MY LADY
