Etta James - The Jealous Kind Lyrics

Don't be angry
If I seem rude
Each time we meet
A girl that you once knew
You say that used to be so close to you

It's just that I'm so afraid
Someone might steal you away
Oh, I'd lose my mind
I can't help myself
The way I feel sometimes
Yeah, I'm the jealous kind

It was alright
When I first met you
Oh, I didn't mind
But now things have changed
And I'm just not the same
Oh, and now I find

I want you all to myself
I don't want to share you
With nobody, nobody, nobody else
You must forgive me
For the way I act sometimes
Yeah, I'm the jealous kind

Oh, baby
Oh, baby

If you only knew
How much it hurts me
Oh, to hear you say
How you can't forget
That before we met
Those were the good old days

Why must you hurt me so?
Lord, I can't stand it no more
Boy, I'm really, really, really, oh I'm really tryin'
And I can't help myself
The way I act sometimes
I'm the jealous kind

Oh, baby
Oh, baby
I'm the jealous kind
I know, I know
And I know, baby, I know
Oh, I know, I know
I know I'm the jealous kind
Ooh, I can't help it, I can't help it, baby
I can't help that I, I'm the jealous kind
