Jealous Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I said I wish my hands could do
What that dress is doing
Holding you tight
As your body's moving
And the way that glass of wine
Can ease your mind and soothe ya
I say, oooo baby. I'm gonna do it to ya

[Pre-Chorus]
From the wind that blows by
Smell of a scent of your perfume
From the sun that touches your skin
On a Sunday afternoon
I'm jealous!

[Chorus]
I said, you got me jealous of everything
Everything that gets to know to you (baby)
Said you got me jealous of everything
Because nothing loves you like I do
I said nothing loves you like I do

[Verse 2]
Said I wish my thoughts could be
Could be inside your head
And make you think of me, and you
In your bed
Tattoo on your waistline
Ooo what I wouldn't do
Said what I wouldn't give to be a permanent part of you
Ooo
[Pre-Chorus]
From the wind that blows by
Smell of a scent of your perfume
From the sun that touches your skin
On a Sunday afternoon
I'm jealous!

[Chorus]
I said, you got me jealous of everything
Everything that gets to know to you (baby)
Said you got me jealous of everything
Because nothing loves you like I do
I said nothing loves you like I do

[Bridge]
Girl, I try
With everything I am to keep my cool
But everywhere we go girl you can
And they don't deserve the privilege of lookin at you girl!
And I know why
I sound a little crazy, yeah that's true
But baby when it comes to you and I
I'll be crazy for you, girl I'm so damn jealous
Said I'm jea- jealous
Said I'm jea- jealous
Said I'm jea- jealous
[Chorus]
I said, you got me jealous of everything
Everything that gets to know to you (baby)
Said you got me jealous of everything
Because nothing loves you like I do
I said nothing loves you like I do
I said, you got me jealous of everything
Everything that gets to know to you (baby)
Said you got me jealous of everything
Because nothing loves you like I do
I said nothing loves you like I do

[Outro]
Nothing loves you like I do
Nothing loves you like I do
Nothing loves you like I do
Nothing loves you like I do

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
