She come around here about midnight
She come around here about midnight
Make me feel so good
Every night about midnight

Come around

Walking down the street
She knock on my door

Come in my room

Well why do you make me feel alright
She's a natural born woman

Natural born soul sender
Natural born woman
Natural born soul sender
Come here about midnight, yeah! yeah!

Did I tell you about my baby
Well, she comes around
Five feet four
From her head to the ground

Comes around here
Just about midnight
Makes me feel so good
Makes me feel alright

And her name is G . L . O . are . I . A

Oh, oh, oh midnight, midnight, midnight

Walking down on the street

Come knock on my door
Knock, knock on my door
Then come in my room

She's a sender, she's a lover
She's a sender, she's a killer

And every day, and every day
And every day child
And every day child, every day

Feel, feel




Mamma look, feel, feel, so good
She's a sender, She's a sender
