[Intro]
What have we got here?
Ow! Ooh-wee! Come here, girl, mm!
What's you name? Baby, woo-hoo, baby

[Verse 1]
I'm in love with a lady, and I don't even know her name
Before you call me crazy, let me make it plain
She's real classy, she's quite a dame
Man, she stays so sharp, she always looks so good
With the latest fashion straight from Hollywood
(Ooh, Hollywood) that's right, you heard me

[Chorus]
I ask myself, well well well
I said, what kind of lady is this?
I went to stutter, it came on me
I ask myself, is t-t-that how dress b-bulging like that?
I said, what kind of lady is this? Yeah...

[Post-Chorus]
What kind of lady? Ooh-wee!
What kind of chick is this? Lord, have mercy
What kind of lady? What have we got here?
Sexy, sexy thing
[Verse 2]
Night before last, I made a trip
A voyage to the disco (disco, disco, disco, disco)
There she was, this chick
Shakin' baby (woo!), man, she stole the show
She upset the ladies and drove men insane (aah, uh!)
I'm in love with her (I'm in love with her)
I don't know her name... not yet, that is

[Chorus]
I ask myself, ah, hm-hm
I said, what kind of lady is this?
I went to stutter, it came on me
I ask myself, is t-t-that how dress b-bulging like that?
I said, what kind of lady is this? What kind of lady, mm-mm-mm...

[Post-Chorus]
What kind of lady? Woo!
What kind of chick is this? Sure is fine, I love that dress
What kind of lady? What have we got here?
What kind of sexy thing?

[Verse 3]
Lord, won't you help me, I can't think of nothin' but her
I've seen good before, but my God, this lady's so fine
There she is again, I can't take it, come here girl
(Ooh, come here girl)
[Rap]
Lady, before we get in too deep, I need to know one thing
Baby, what's your name?
Huh, you got everybody rappin' about you
But no one knows your name, tell me
Baby, what's your name?
Uh, see, you're too fine to be denyin'
Me a chance to know your name
Baby, what's your name?
That car, them clothes, who's lady could you be?
Baby, what's your name?

[Bridge]
I ask myself, I said, what kind of lady is this?
What kind of lady? What have we got here?
What kind of sexy thing?
Ah-ah-ah-ooh! Ah-ah-ah-ooh!
Ah-ah-ah-ooh! Ah-ah-ah-ooh!
Is t-t-that how a dress b-b-bulge like that?

[Outro]
I ask myself, I said, what kind of lady is this?
Oh, child... with that red dress on
I ask myself, I said, what kind of lady is this?
Ahh! Oh, girl...
I ask myself, I said, what kind of lady is this?
Ahh! Oh, girl...
I ask myself, I said, what kind of lady is this?
Oh, child... with that red dress on
