Lyrics

WORDS & MELODY: ARTHUR “POETRY” PAYNE III

C.1998 POETRY KINDA’ MUSIC

B.M.I.

IF YOU’RE MY TYPE OF MAN

WHY DON’T CHA CATCH ME IF U CAN, OOO

DON’T NEED NOBODY JUST TO HOLD MY HAND

DON’T NEED IN MY LIFE A CONTROLLIN’ MAN

CAUSE I’M A WOMAN SHO-NUFF IN COMMAND

I KNOW WHAT’S RIGHT FOR ME, IT JUST MIGHT BE YOU,

SO IF YOU THINK YOU CAN BE THAT SOMEBODY NEW…

THEN SHOW ME SOMETHIN’ I AIN’T SEEN BEFORE

AND COME PREPARED BEFORE YOU KNOCK ON MY DOOR

CAUSE AIN’T NO HEARTACHES ALLOWED HERE NO MORE,

BUT IF YOU THINK YOU’RE THE MAN, OH CATCH ME IF YOU CAN,

HEY COME ON, CATCH ME IF YOU CAN

IF YOU’RE MY TYPE OF MAN, CATCH ME IF U CAN

IF YOU’RE MY TYPE OF MAN

WHY DON’T U CATCH ME IF U CAN

DON’T NEED NO TWO-TIME LOSER COMIN’ AROUND

SO YOUR FEET HAD BETTER BE ON SOLID GROUND

DON’T TALK COMMITMENT JUST TO LAY ME DOWN

CAUSE I KNOW WHAT’S WRONG FOR ME, IT JUST MIGHT BE YOU

BUT MAYBE YOU’LL PROVE TO BE SOMEBODY TRUE…

SO TELL ME SOMETHIN’ I AIN’T HEARD BEFORE

JUST PREPARE BEFORE YOU WALK THRU MY DOOR

CAUSE AIN’T NO MISTAKES HAPPENIN’ HERE NO MORE,

SO IF YOU’RE MY KINDA’ MAN, OH CATCH ME IF YOU CAN,

I'M A WOMAN STRONG I STAND, HEY, HEY CATCH ME IF YOU CAN

DON’T WANT NO LOSER, DON’T WANT NO BRUISER, DON’T WANT NO USER
