My Kind of woman My Kind of Man
Patty Loveless Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You don't need diamonds or big fancy cars
You say you're happy right where you are
We're bound together by a little gold band
You're my kind of woman, you're my kind of man

Oh, living without you is my only fear
You still drive me crazy when I hold you near
My body trembles with the touch of your hand
You're my kind of woman, you're my kind of man

You're my kind of woman, you're my kind of man
A match made in Heaven by God's gentle hands
I'll love you forever, together we'll stand
You're my kind of woman, you're my kind of man

You're my kind of woman, you're my kind of man
A match made in Heaven by God's gentle hands
I'll love you forever, together we'll stand




You're my kind of woman, you're my kind of man
You're my kind of woman and you're my kind of man

It's obvious they love each other very much. He's always said Patty is his little sister. They need a whole album of duets together. They both say they sound like family together. And honestly, I've heard Vince on the radio on songs where he did his own background vocals, and I've had to really listen because he sounds like her. Lol. Can't beat this duo.

@billsmith7255

Every time I see this video I realize how much I miss real country music. God bless, Patty and Vince.

@terrysogaugetrains

This is how Country music is supposed to sound.
