Silky Lyrics & Chords By David Gates

Gates

Everybody listen, 'cause I found what I've been missing.
She's oh so, so divine.
And beneath the latest fashion, there's a lady filled with passion.
But she's always so refined.

Every time we go dancing people stop and stare, can't compare.
She's making me look just like a Fred Astaire.

Later on when we're alone at last, she has her way, don't dare say.
Now in L.A. or Manhattan, in her roller skates or satin.
She's so silky, that's her name.
And not since Wendell Willkie has the world seen anybody like my silky, she's the one.

(Solo)

Every time we go out the people stop and stare, can't compare.
She's making me feel just like a millionaire.
And if you wonder why she stays with me.
Well I've got my ways, don't dare say.

Hey now, everybody listen, 'cause I found what I've been missing.
And she's oh so, so unique.
In her Porsche or her Mercedes, she's the envy of the ladies.
As the French say: Magnifique.
Hey now listen, found what I've been missing, oh my silky, she's the one.
Hey now listen, I found what I've been missing, oh my silky, you're the one.

Silky, ah.
