Some of us are blessed with golden beauty
And some look like an angel in the sky
But the Lord, he ain't always so forgiving
'Cause he made a few that'd make a baby cry

[Chorus]
Oh, Sweet Melinda, don't you know I love you
But baby you're so ugly I could die
And that's why I had to kiss you
In the moonlight where no one could see me cry

Some of us are blessed with all ten fingers
And some can even count past number nine
But others have a different combination
With two hands they can count to twenty-five

[Chorus]

Now I don't mind your mother is your sister
And I don't care you talk a little slow
'Cause baby I'm your only lovin' brother
And that's the reason why I love you so

[Chorus]

In the moonlight where no one could see me cry
'Cause he made a few that'd make a baby cry
