  • Some people think
    That she's one of those mink-coated ladies
    They say she wakes up at one
    And makes the paparazzi run till dawn
    She wines and dines with Argentines and Kuwaitis
    After she sips margaritas on the White House lawn

    That's not her style I can tell you
    That ain't my woman
    It's just not her style I can tell you
    Because I'm her man

    The papers say
    She was seen in L.A. with a stranger
    She found a perfect body
    With a Maserati right outside

    And then she chartered a Lear
    When she heard her career was in danger
    And gave the pilot
    Somethin' extra for a perfect ride

    That's not her style I can tell you
    That ain't my woman
    It's just not her style I can tell you
    Because I'm her man

    Not that she's never d
    One something crazy or done something wild
    It's just that she's better
    At doing whatever suits her style
    And that's not her style

    I've read where it's said
    That she sleeps in a bed made of satin
    She's had her face done in every place you can try
    They say she gets a piece

    Of every lease in Manhattan
    And says she's thirty
    When she's really pushing forty-five

    That's not her style I can tell you
    That ain't my woman
    It's just not her style I can tell you
    Because I'm her man Writer/s: BILLY JOEL
