Written by Chuck Jackson, Marvin Yancy and Natalie Cole
Sophisticated lady, sophisticated lady
She`s a different lady with a different style
She stands tall and steady like the Eiffel Tower
She is hip to politics but loves her jazz
She`s got lots of rhythm she`s got lots of class
Everybody knows how she got her name, yeah
Oh, ha, she wears knee length dresses with her high heel steppers
She`s not no back stabber but she`s sure a pleaser
She talks quiet and gentle, she acts very cool
She sticks close to her lover, she obey God`s rules, woh
(Sophisticated lady) Sophisticated lady, yeah
(Sophisticated lady) Oh
(Sophisticated lady) That`s her name, that`s her name
(Sophisticated lady) Woh, woh
Everybody knows how she got her name
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah----
Woh--, oh, oh, oh, oh
She`s the kind of person that you`d like to meet
`Cause she`s always smiling and she`s always neat
She can start a fire in the coldest man
She`s a hip slick sister known throughout the land, oh
(Sophisticated lady) That`s her name
Sophisticated lady (sophisticated lady) yeah
Oh, well, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, hoo, that`s her name
Sophisticated lady (sophisticated lady) lady, lady
Sophisticated lady (sophisticated lady) oh
Sophisticated lady, (sophisticated lady) ah
Sophisticated lady (sophisticated lady)
Ooh, ooh (sophisticated lady)
Repeat (Sophisticated lady)
