A Girl Like You Lyrics
I've never known a girl like you before
Now just like in a song from days of yore
Here you come a knockin' knockin' on my door
And I've never met a girl like you before
You give me just a taste so I want more and more
Now my hands are bleeding and my needs are raw
Now you\'ve got me crawlin' crawlin' on the floor
And I've never met a girl like you before
You've made me acknowledge the devil in me
I hope to God I'm talkin' metaphorically
Hope that I'm talkin' allegorically
Know that I'm talkin' about the way I feel
And I've never met a girl like you before
Never, never, never, never
Never met a girl like you before
This old town's changed so much
Don't feel like I belong
Too many protest singers
Not enough protest songs
And now you've come along
Yes you've come along
And I've never met a girl like you before
Now just like in a song from days of yore
Here you come a knockin' knockin' on my door
And I've never met a girl like you before
You give me just a taste so I want more and more
Now my hands are bleeding and my needs are raw
Now you\'ve got me crawlin' crawlin' on the floor
And I've never met a girl like you before
You've made me acknowledge the devil in me
I hope to God I'm talkin' metaphorically
Hope that I'm talkin' allegorically
Know that I'm talkin' about the way I feel
And I've never met a girl like you before
Never, never, never, never
Never met a girl like you before
This old town's changed so much
Don't feel like I belong
Too many protest singers
Not enough protest songs
And now you've come along
Yes you've come along
And I've never met a girl like you before

The Doors?!?!?!? Sorry, I don't hear that at all. Great song though.
"Now my hands are bleeding and my KNEES are raw COS now you\'ve got me crawlin' crawlin' on the floor"
"And I've never KNOWN a girl like you before Never, never, never, never Never KNOWN a girl like you before"
...sorry i sound like such a pedantic bitch lol
i seriously LOVE this song my dad used to play it all the time when i was little
Add a muff fuzz and all the rookies think it's the Doors or David Bowie or some other trendy top40 60's artist. It's neither of them and not even close.
The song is a tribute to Iggy Pop. If any of you who thinks it is the Doors or w/e had a clue, you'd recognise the Fuzz effect on the guitar as classic Fuzzrite sound frorm the Stooges.
The ex-Drummer from the Sex Pistols played the Vibraphone on this song.
doesnt anybody think it sounds like the doors?
i think it sounds like david bowie
@02CBR600F4i I thought it was David Bowie too!

I agree, I used to think this was the Doors.
Good song though. Good song.

I still love this song, magic!!!!
So, apparently the thought that it is from some 60s artist isn't so super crazy - it does (according to wikipedia) sample the drum track of Len Barry's 1-2-3 from 1965.
the voice looks like his for sure. But I was talking about the instrumental part, especially the keyboards.
