Official




Pretty woman walking down the street
+
Pretty woman the kind I like to meet
+
Pretty woman
+
I don't believe you you're not the truth
+
No one could look as good as you
+
Mercy
+
Pretty woman won't you pardon me
+
Pretty woman I couldn't help but see
+
Pretty woman
+
And you look lovely as can be
+
Are you lonely just like me
+
Wow
+
Pretty woman stop a while
+
Pretty woman talk a while
+
Pretty woman give your smile to me
+
Pretty woman yeah yeah yeah
+
Pretty woman look my way
+
Pretty woman say you'll stay with me
+
Cause I need you
+
I'll treat you right
+
Come with me baby
+
Be mine tonight
+
Pretty woman don't walk on by
+
Pretty woman don't make me cry
+
Pretty woman don't walk away hey okay
+
If that's the way it must be okay
+
I guess I'll go on home it's late
+
There'll be tomorrow night but wait
+
What do I see
+
Is she walking back to me
+
Yeah she's walking back to me
+
Oh oh pretty woman

Pretty Woman

"Oh, Pretty Woman", or simply "Pretty Woman", is a song recorded by Roy Orbison and written by Orbison and Bill Dees. It was released as a single in August 1964 on Monument Records and spent three weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 from September 26, 1964, making it the second and final single by Orbison (after "Running Scared") to reach number one in the United States. It was also Orbison's third single to top the UK Singles Chart, where it spent three weeks at number one.

The single version (in mono) and the LP version (in stereo on the Oribisongs LP) have slightly differing lyrics. The LP version with the intended lyric: "come with me baby" was changed for the single to "come to me baby" as the former was considered too risque. The record ultimately sold seven million copies and marked the high point in Orbison's career. In October 1964, the single was certified gold by the RIAA. At the year's end, Billboard ranked it the number four song of 1964.

"Oh, Pretty Woman" was later used for the title of the 1990 film Pretty Woman and its 2018 Broadway musical adaptation.

Acuff-Rose Music's lawsuit over a parody of "Oh, Pretty Woman" by 2 Live Crew led to a Supreme Court ruling establishing that parody was a valid form of fair use.
