Got myself a woman, or I should say I try
To keep the faith 'fore it gets too late
Hold her down when she wants to fly
Always tryin' to tell me how it ought to be
And if I treat her right then she won't be the end of me
I don't know why
She cast my life in shame
But every time she walk I seem
To fall down on my honor

She's got rhythm, rocks me to my soul
Hey! the girl's all right
She's got rhythm, steers me when I roll
Hey! the girl's all right

What's she tryin' to say, does she ever hear me at all
Every day there's somethin' that she wants
Tells me things that I can't recall
Nails me down, she's a hammer
Can't see no way out
Of all the things you can run these days, you can't outrun the mouth
I don't know why
At times she can go on
But if by chance we meet I know
With her it won't be wrong

She's got rhythm, rocks me to my soul
Hey! the girl's all right
She's got rhythm, scares me, then I know
Hey! the girl's all right

Sometimes I fail to notice, sometimes I play too rough
But when I feel I'm losin' her
Well then I've had enough
Knows my limitations and she always calls my bluff
I take back what I said tonight

She's got rhythm, rocks me to my soul
Hey! the girl's all right
She's got rhythm, scares me, then I know
Hey! the girl's all right
