Special Sense of Kind Lyrics by Bonnie Dobson

0

[Spoken Intro]
This is a song that was written. By a, a Canadian who lived awhile in Scotland. His name is Iain Rankin. And it's a song about a lady and it’s called a special sense of kind
[Verse 1]
She sells the daily papers and the morning rose
She's up each day at seven and at nine she's closed
Unless you run out of sugar, then she’ll open anytime
[Refrain]
For she's an ordinary woman
With an extraordinary sense of kind
[Verse 2]
Her face is lined with laughter though her clothes are thin
And she never thinks of money when thе kids run in
Her penny box is full of things, that really cost a dimе
[Refrain]
For she's an ordinary woman
With an extraordinary sense of kind
[Chorus]
Wednesday afternoons should be her early closin' day
But she forgets to turn around the sign
And everybody knows it's really just her way
To invite you to come in and pass the time
[Verse 3]
A brand new supermarket opened next to her
And a lady in a Jaguar and a coat of fur
Made her a handsome offer, that politely was declined
[Refrain]
By an ordinary woman
With an extraordinary sense of kind
[Chorus]
Wednesday afternoons should be her early closin' day
But she forgets to turn around the sign
And everybody knows it's really just her way
To invite you to come in and pass the time
[Verse 4]
Although it may be dusty, and her lights are not the best
Her shelves are full of memories and happiness
Next time you run out of sugar, why not spend a little time
[Refrain]
With an ordinary woman
With an extraordinary sense of kind
She's an ordinary woman
With an extraordinary sense of kind
