Natural Born Bugie
Humble Pie Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

There she is again
Steppin' out of her limousine, well
Looking like the cover of a twenty-dollar magazine
She's got it made and branded
If you know what I mean

She's a...natural born woman
Natural born woman

She's a...she's a natural born woman

There she is again watch her stop the Main Street in its tracks
Looking like Creole queen
Hair hangin' down her back
I say, don't look too long, boy
She'll make your glasses crack

She's a...natural born woman
Natural born woman
She's a...she's a natural born woman

Get your track
Yeah, natural born woman
Yeah, yeah...
Natural born woman
Yeah, yeah...
She's a natural born woman

Well, I'm sweatin' and I'm shakin'
When I'm bringin' you the news
You can do anything
But lay off of my blue suede shoes
That's why I'm standin' here today
Preachin' natural born woman blues

Well, she's a...natural born woman
Well, yeah...
Natural born woman
Well, yeah...
Natural born woman

Well, I'm looking out my back door
Wonderin' which place to go
Think I'll move on down to Memphis
Pay my money to see a rock 'n' roll show
Find me a sweet-heart Susie
Together we can lose control

Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
She's a...natural born woman

Overall Meaning

The Humble Pie's song "Natural Born Bugie" is about a woman who embodies confidence and attraction. The song starts with the woman stepping out of her limousine, looking glamorous and sophisticated. She has the aura of a twenty-dollar magazine cover, which communicates sophistication and beauty. The beauty is not accidental, but a result of branding, meaning that everything she does appears to be well coordinated and done with intentionality. The woman is a natural-born woman, and her presence commands attention wherever she goes. She has the confidence of someone who knows her worth and is not afraid to show it. Her beauty and confidence are enough to stop the entire Main Street in its tracks.

The second stanza adds more descriptors to this woman's beauty. She looks like a Creole queen, with her hair flowing down her back. However, looking at her for too long brings danger, and one's glasses might crack. Here, the singer advises caution, warning us not to stare for too long. The final verse ties everything the singer wants to communicate together. The singer is sweating and shaking, bringing the news. He warns the listeners to lay off his blue suede shoes, which are obviously dear to him. The song concludes with the singer looking out the back door and contemplating where to go next.

Bought this single in 1969. Remember walking home from work (I was 17) in the sunshine, with the 45 tucked in my lunch box. Happy, carefree days, with singers like Stevie, Greg and Peter at their peak. We didn't know how lucky we were, or how brief those wonderful days would be. 73 this year...

@curtzeek8818

@@howardbianchi9371 That's not so far fetched. There are a lot of bands that have come and gone like that. Elton John was that way. He fired his whole band, including Bernie Taupin. He realized that mistake pretty quickly back then and brought his songwriter back on board. Nothing rare about a band with one driving force in it. FYI, back then it wasn't easy staying sober and that is exactly why a lot of bands were ripped off by managers or accts. As far as who wrote for Small Faces, I think you should read up a little more on them to learn the truth before you go bashing members of the band. Here is an excerpt of some history.
{"Marriott wrote or co-wrote most of Small Faces' hit singles. In an interview in 1984, Marriott was asked what his best Small Faces songs were: "I think 'All or Nothing', that I wrote, takes a lot of beating. To me, if there's a song that typifies that era, then that might be it. Words regardless, cos it's only a silly love song, but the actual feel and arrangement of the thing, and maybe 'Tin Soldier'".[34] In 1967, Marriott wrote the evocative rock-ballad "Tin Soldier" to woo model Jenny Rylance.[35] They first met in 1966 and Marriott was immediately smitten, but Rylance was dating up-and-coming singer Rod Stewart and so the two became friends. She later broke up with Stewart and had a brief romantic liaison with Marriott, but much to his disappointment ended it to go back to Stewart. Rylance and Stewart later split for good after a rocky four-year relationship; when Marriott found out he pursued her relentlessly, leading him to write "Tin Soldier". The song was a hit for the band in 1967 and for Marriott a personal triumph. He and Rylance were married at Kensington Register Office, London, on 29 May 1968."}

@ncexnyc4466

I wouldn't dwell to long on that matter, as it will only drive you crazy. Having been around back then I can tell you there were a number of bands that were very hot during that era, but somewhere along the way they got lost in the shuffle. Uriah Heep, Foghat, Bloodrock, and Atomic Rooster are just a few who you rarely hear anymore and if you do it's the same one or two songs played over and over.

So true. Saw them in '73 post-Frampton with Clem Clemson and it was a powerhouse show driven to the heights by the fact that Foghat opened and burned it up, leaving the Pie to "top this."

Phenomenal high-energy late '60s boogie...so much to love with this one: lead vocal trade-off on the verses, an air-tight groove, Steve Marriott's patented 'take no prisoners' vocal delivery, and the cheeky nicking of the "Revolution" riff at the end of each chorus!

@Viewingpublic08

I can hear hints of Beatles I Want You at 00:08, CCR Green River at 00:57, and Peter Green at 01:39. I know the dates don't bear out any pinching, but it is nice to be reminded of the sounds of that era!

@@allenbeck7321 Humble your opinion may be but I share it completely. My all time favorite live recording. Steve Marriott’s vocals are spine tingling. But something we haven’t touched on in these discussions is the late Jerry Shirley’s drum work. The Filmore live recording features him at his best. Especially on Get Ready and I don’t need no Doctor.

@manko717

They came to the Coliseum, in 1969. I think someone cancelled out, and they dropped in with Iron Butterfly. I had two tickets and nobody wanted to go, last minute. Called a good friend, and his 14 year old brother answered the phone. David was out, so I asked his brother if he wanted to go. Humble Pie opened up, and Frampton broke out the talk box during the set. Blew everyone away. Iron Butterfly was tremendous. Seen a lot of concerts over my years, some are vague memories, others aren’t worth talking about. ( full of yuppies) That one night, we were there, and it was really Historic. Should have been an Album. Truly professional.
