My Kind of Man Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)

If I'm not your kind of woman
Being just the way I am
Then I know you're really not
My kind of man
I don't believe you have the right
To ask me to be different
Either take me like I am
Or let me be

If you really love me
I mean, really loved or love me
You wouldn't want to change
One part of me

If you can't be satisfied with me
The way I am
If I can't make you happy
Find someone who can

If I'm not your kind of woman
Being just the way I am
Then I know you're really
Not my kind of man

I couldn't make you happy
If I let you change me
For I know you wouldn't love me
That-a way

I can only be myself
But if you want something else
Then I can see no reason
I should stay

If you can't be satisfied with me
The way I am
If I can't make you happy
Find someone who can

If I'm not your kind of woman
Being just the way I am
Then I know you're really
Not my kind of man

If I'm not your kind of woman
Being just the way I am
Then I know you're really
Not my kind of man

If I'm not your kind of woman 
Being just the way I am 
Then I know you're really not 
My kind of man 
I don't believe you have the right 
To ask me to be different 
Either take me like I am 
Or let me be

If you really love me 
I mean, really loved or love me 
You wouldn't want to change 
One part of me

If you can't be satisfied with me 
The way I am 
If I can't make you happy 
Find someone who can

If I'm not your kind of woman 
Being just the way I am 
Then I know you're really 
Not my kind of man

I couldn't make you happy 
If I let you change me 
For I know you wouldn't love me 
That-a way

I can only be myself 
But if you want something else 
Then I can see no reason 
I should stay

If you can't be satisfied with me 
The way I am 
If I can't make you happy 
Find someone who can

If I'm not your kind of woman 
Being just the way I am 
Then I know you're really 
Not my kind of man

If I'm not your kind of woman 
Being just the way I am 
Then I know you're really 
Not my kind of man

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
