World's greatest mystery
The love between a woman and a man
Some guys are Romeos
And others simply do the best they can

I'm just your average ordinary Joe
Trying to learn the things I never knew I had to know

What's a man supposed to do?
I can't get no kick from 9-5, no no
And I'm not a man who thinks it's true
It's a woman's place to keep our love alive

I've watched enough daytime TV to know my baby's needs
But sometimes I swear, she's impossible to please!

She says you give me all that I want of your money babe
But you never take me dancing
(Never take me dancing)
You give me sweet little talk, call me honey baby
But you never take me dancing
(Never take me dancing)

I think I do a lot to show how I feel about her in my way
Roses on our anniversary, candlelight and me on her birthday
Just went I thought that I, I had it all worked out
She says I still don't know just what it's all about

She says you give me all I want of your money babe
But you never take me dancing
(Never take me dancing)
You give me sweet little talk, call me honey baby
But you never take me dancing
(Never take me dancing)

I'm just your average ordinary Joe
I'm trying to learn the things I never knew I had to know

You give me all that I want of your money babe
But you never take me dancing
(Never take me dancing)
You give me sweet little talk, call me honey baby
But you never take me dancing
(Never take me dancing)

You give me sweet little talk, call me honey baby
But you never take me dancing
(Never take me dancing)
You give me sweet little talk, call me honey baby
