Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh girl, I know that you're attracted to me
And I should feel the same about you
But there's something wrong
I don't know what it is
That keeps us from becoming a two
[Verse 2]
It's not your looks (You're very pretty)
It's not your style (The way you dress is oh, so fresh)
It's not the way that you carry yourself
[Verse 3]
Oh girl, I'm sorry
You're not my kind of girl
'Cause you're the kind of girl that a man's dreams are made of
Oh girl, I'm sorry
You're not my kind of girl
'Cause you're the kind of girl that a man would be proud to call his own
Yeah
[Verse 4]
You're so pretty
I wouldn't change a thing about you
But I've been in love before
So I know how it feels
And the chemistry just isn't there
[Verse 5]
It's not your looks (You're very pretty)
It's not your style (The way you dress is oh, so fresh)
It's not the way you carry yourself
[Verse 6]
Oh girl, I'm sorry
You're not my kind of girl
You're the kind of girl that a man's dreams are made of
Oh girl, I'm sorry
You're not my kind of girl
'Cause you're the kind of girl that a man would be proud to call his own
[Verse 7]
Sorry
You're not my kind of girl
You're the kind of girl that a man's dreams are made of
Oh girl, I'm sorry
You're not my kind of girl
'Cause you're the kind of girl that a man would be proud to call his own
[Verse 8]
Man, I don't know whats wrong with that brother
You know what I'm saying, Mike?
On a serious tip, I think that girl is pretty fly
You too, Ron? (Yeah)
I think he's just bugging, man
Yo, if I had it I know what I'd do with it
But if you had it, what would you do?
[Verse 9]
Oh girl, I'm sorry
I'm not trying to put you down
Kind of girl
You're just not that girl
Oh girl, I'm sorry
Even though you're not my kind of girl
Girl, you're still so fine
[Verse 10]
Oh girl, I'm sorry
You're not my kind of girl
You're so beautiful
Sorry, kind of girl
I wish you were mine
You're the kind of girl that a man would be proud to call his own
Sorry, kind of girl
[Verse 11]
Sorry, you're not my kind of girl
You're not my, you're not my, you're not my
You're not my kind, oh no, kind of girl
You're not my, you're not my, you're not my, you're not, you're not
My kind
I'm sorry, baby
