She come around here about midnight
She come around here about midnight
Make me feel so good
Every night about midnight
Come around
Make me feel alright
Walking down the street
She knock on my door
Walking down the street
She knock on my door
Come in my room
Make me feel so good
Like a woman do
Well why do you make me feel alright
She's a natural born woman
Natural born soul sender
Natural born woman
Natural born soul sender
Come here about midnight, yeah! yeah!

 

 

 

Did I tell you about my baby
Well, she comes around
Five feet four
From her head to the ground
Comes around here
Just about midnight
Makes me feel so good
Makes me feel alright
And her name is G . L . O . R . I . A
G.L.O.R.I.A, G.L.O.R.I.A
G.L.O.R.I.A, G.L.O.R.I.A
Gonna shout it every night
Gonna shout it every day

 

 

 

Oh, oh, oh midnight, midnight, midnight
She come around here
She makes me feel alright about midnight
Walking down on the street
Come knock on my door
Knock, knock on my door
Then come in my room
Make me feel alright
Feel, feel, feel, feel
Feel, feel, alright, alright
She's a sender, she's a lover
She's a sender, she's a killer

 

 

 

What's her name?
Her name is Gloria
G . L . O . R . I . A
G.L.O.R.I.A
Gonna shout it every night
Gonna shout it every day
G.L.O.R.I.A, G.L.O.R.I.A
I wanna shout it every night
I wanna shout it every day
And every day, and every day
And every day child
And every day child, every day
Makes me feel good
Feel, feel
Mamma look, feel, feel, so good
She's a sender, She's a sender
