DELBERT MCCLINTON lyrics - The Jealous Kind

Don't be angry if I seem rude each time we meet

A boy that you once knew

That you say used to be so close to you

It's just that I'm so afraid

Someone might steal you away

Girl, 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

Girl, I didn't mind

But now things have changed

I'm just not the same and now I find

I want you all to myself

I don't want to share you with nobody else

You must forgive me, for the way I act sometimes

Yes, I'm the jealous kind



Oh baby,



If you only knew how much it hurts 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

I can't stand it no more

And girl I'm really tryin'

I can't help myself, the way I act sometimes

I guess, I'm the jealous kind



Oh, baby

Yeah, I'm the jealous kind
