She lives in a house at the end of my street
She’s real real pretty and real real sweet
She’s got a brand new roof that never leaks
A husband that works every day of the week
Who’s cool and cute, got a ponytail
Knows how to paint and hammer a nail
Never calls her up from the county jail
Askin’ her to come down and post his bail

Chorus:
If I could be anybody, I know who I’d wanna be
I wanna be Natalie
I want to be a normal wife - normal plans, a normal man, a normal life
If I could choose a fantasy
Be anyone I wanna be
Dolly, Cher, Pamela Lee, I’d wanna be Natalie

She’s got a bright green lawn, a garden out back
That puts out tomatoes by the gunnysack
A cord of firewood, chopped and stacked
A hammock swingin’ from a tamarack
A good dog that never jumps the fence
A ‘66 Chevy without any dents
A washer and dryer that never needs repair
Central heating and central air

(Repeat Chorus)
