Where'd you get those fancy clothes?
Where'd you get those, goodness knows
Just show some civility
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me

I don't need no luxuries
'Long as you are understandin'
I'm not difficult to please
Act nice and gentle to me

I am the kinda guy who
Likes to take you as I found you
Throw away your false eyelashes
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me

Holdin' my hand
Understand
Act nice, ooh
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me

Holdin' my hand
Now understand
Gentle to me
Act nice, act nice and gentle to me, ooh
