LYRICS
Oh beautiful lady, Maybelline baby
Hearing from her mirror
That her dukes are not daisies
Her shape and size, they don't need advice
She paints up that face, to make sure those blemishes hide
Coffee and cigarettes
Calorie noose around the neck
Dolling up for disrespect, disrespect, disrespect
Popping pills and posting pics
Stressing on her waist and hips
Her body's right, the world is sick
World is sick, world is sick
Flower, flower, growing free
All your petals, they look good to me
You're just the way that you should be
You're beautiful naturally, you're beautiful naturally
Oh beautiful maiden, L'Oréal patron
Wasting all her money on that body she keeps hating
Her ass and thighs they don't need advice
'Cause the magazine rack keeps saying that her rack's the wrong size
Coffee and cigarettes
Calorie noose around the neck
Dolling up for disrespect, disrespect, disrespect
Popping pills and posting pics
Stressing on her waist and hips
Her body's right, the world is sick
World is sick, world is sick
Flower, flower, growing free
All your petals, they look good, to me
And you're just the way, that you should be
You're beautiful naturally, you're beautiful naturally
Flower, flower, growing free
All your petals, they look (so damn) good, to me
And you're just the way, that you should be
You're beautiful naturally, you're beautiful naturally
You're beautiful naturally, you're beautiful naturally

Hey Allen ! I discovered you by watching an episode of Ridiculousness. You're the first and only guest from that show whom i found interesting enough to Google. And man, i'm so glad i did ! I just found my (old)love for r'n'b and soul. Are you planning to tour Europe in the near future? If you would do so, please stop by of you are near Holland ! That would be awesome !

I almost didn't make it as i had contracted meningitis but i fought hard because there was no way i was going to miss this truly magical evening it kept me going! Music is so powerful a real feeling from your heart and soul! Thank you Allen and Boys for sharing such love and keeping me alive!

Now Allen Stone this is writing music, lyrics that remind me from back in the day, & I am 62 beautiful, unique song writing, love, love, love!❤🩹👌
Come on soul brother! 😍🔥
Hey allen hope you see this but almost 3 years ago actually the 12th of January your mother who I believe still works at the hospital here in Electric city helped my woman deliver our beautiful melody and I just wanna tell you how much our little girl loves your music and I am super blessed to know your mother and have your passionate soul on this reach Brotha keep it peaceful
From a 60 year old woman, I loved being able to show this to my 16 year old daughter. It is the message I have been giving here since she was a baby. Thanx for the back up! ( Husband agrees with you! )Perfect, just the way you are. Naturally.
THANK YOU FOR THESE POWERFUL WORDS

Hey you. I've got you by a bunch in age! But I'll tell you this. The best words I ever heard, (from a dumb but beautiful Sci Fi movie called Galaxy Quest) were these. "Never give up. Never Surrender". Having seen Allen at the Adelaide in Toronto last year --- I know that is his mission. i hope you continue to enjoy what he does. I do. Pure clarity. I hope people are better to you.
This arrangement is ridiculous, songwriting incredible and voice spectacular ! Thank you sir
I can’t explain how much this song feels like it was written with me in mind, even though it wasn’t. It actually makes me feel special, not something I’ve felt a lot of.
The 50 people that disliked this are obviously deaf.

Allen Stones music fits my life right now every song I hear him sing just takes me on a journey thru my life and love. And the challenges of relationships and life. And how he speaks of his wife comes shining thru his music and we need more of that today and aware of the times we live in now. And I do appreciate Teddy and Allen for the passion in their music.
My brother introduced me to this guy last night. Can I say INSTANT FAN!!!!!
You are the only artist that usually sounds better singing live. Your studio recordings are amazing but you voice live is out of this world

Jordan Major not to throw shade on your comment because I feel what you’re trying trying say! Artist him you enjoy seeing them live!! And that is because they are truly connected to the songs they sing and 9 times out of 10 they actually wrote it themselves based on whatever inspired it!! So live is just a totally different connection with the song and the vibe you get from the artist in this case Allen Stone! Not with that being said., this guy is so incredible that even though I prefer live in general his recorded songs still sound as awesome as the live ones and because he’s a real artist.. you still connect and see his connection to the song and you are able to connect and vibe with him!! I hope that makes since!! And I’m only sharing this because I feel you I prefer the natural Setting like one if my favorites is The Tiny Desk platform that usually only has indie type artists!!! Anyway sorry for being long winded but this guy sounds just as good recorded for video type thing as he does on a live setting.. and that’s just my opinion! Unaware.. which was the very first sing I heard him sing and I was immediately connected and mad I had just discovered him lol.. Naturally..Brown Eyed Lover Just to name a few.. he murdered those videos.. but the live one where he was playing around with Lauren Hill songs as well as his own was fire because his voice is so amazing that even when he plays around.. he’s still slaying!!! So to sum it up that man is legit the truth and I wait for the day I get to see him live in concert.. this guy is just an over all beast in the music game and I honestly feel there are only a hand full of people that compare to his greatness!!..#AllenStoneFanToMyCore!!! Ok sorry I’m done now LMAO 🤷🏾♀️🤣🤣😍😍
Yassssse I love this !!! I discovered this on TikTok ! Sending to everyone I know!
This message. We all need to hear it, and it’s so much easier to believe when you sing it Allen. Thank you.
This is a god damn masterpiece.

jon culp Right note there are 101 thumbs down and that confuses the hell outa me!!! I need someone to tell me what could you possibly not like About this song! He sang amazing as always.. the background singers killed it and matched Allen’s energy and vibe and sounded amazing.. the band murdered it and set the pace and tempo so Allen could slay!! And the message of the song was very powerful and uplifting and sincere and tastefully presented/expressed forever you want to say it.. What could anyone possibly not like about this song!! That really confuses me!!!
This may sound cheesy,but I'm going to say it anyway. Allen Stone, your music is so much more than melodious compositions; it's an experience. Truly. Thank you:)
good grief!! i have to post again....my heart was lifted with love!!! oh Al!!!!!!!!!!
Why can't music like this get on the radio.
All I can say is that it is good to know music is not dead.
I hope blues and soul never dies. Thank you for being one of my favorite sounds to listen to and thank you for writing this song that never fails to make me love myself.
I could keep watching 3:42-3:47 for a whole day straight. So killer!

Rob Dietrich now of course the whole thing rocks my favorite part starts at 3:16 the music break.. them I lose my shit because I just love his vibe and energy at 3:23 when he’s just gigging to the music!! I just love seeing him do that!!
I've been looping this for a few days.. love, Love, LOVE this song so much. "Stressing on your waist and hips. Your body's right, the world is sick." is my favorite part... Just speaks to my soul
Dear Mr.Stone it's my honour to listen to your music , cuz u are one of them all who can feel other ppl worries and feelings, sorries for bad "englando" Wish u the best! Best regards from humble Polish fan;-) High Five!
love yourself people!!! ❤
The triplets, flams, and ghost notes, oh my. Jason is back with the soul attack. Once again he shows style and finesse on the drums. Allen is lucky to have him.
Hi dude. This is amazing!! As were your Taste Of You video... If you are ever in the UK, please look us up.. We would absolutely love to have you on for an interview and a session... Lotsa love to you and the band...
Why did this song make me so emotional 😭 I love it
Love hearing an actual band
You make me miss real music!!!!! Once again you have created an instant classic!
This dude keeps trying to draw tears of joy from my eyes. The content and delivery is beautiful naturally. #Respect
Yessss this needs to be popular!!! More people need to hear this message !!! Lovvvve
Came here from Teddy swims but I can't seem to back out anymore I love this guy
Man you just don't know how much your music liift me up
Brazilian here... your musicality is simply incredible!!!
So all of my coworkers are concerned cause here I am just silently sobbing at my desk. So thank you, I guess... but for real this song is beautiful.
Allen is truly an artist. Not only does his music have an incredible sound but also a true message to share with the world. Keep doing what you do.
Allen. You make my heart happy. Thank you!!! CANT WAIT FOR THIS ALBUM
You make my heart sing. THANK YOU for the new music and congrats on the baby. Hope to see you soon ❤️
Just came from the premier. Everything about this is beautiful. The message in the lyrics, his delivery, the instrumental... Allen, this moved me to tears. The world has needed to hear this for so long, and you nailed it. From someone who has body image issues around weight, who doesn't take pics unless I have my makeup done, etc. This speaks to me. More than you could ever know. Thank you, Allen, from the bottom of my heart. ❤
Allen. Saw you in Toronto at the Adelaide. took my boy (22) and girl (20). Wanted to shake your hand, but hey, another time. This may seem stupid to you, but at 63.... and an avid musicologist wx ARCTM; I am proud of you. The messages you give, and the beauty of your melodies, and your clear voice, are undeniably touching. Thank you.
Congratulations. The arrangement is incredible. Elegant wind instruments and perfect beat. Wonderful ;D

Sérgio Sá it was so genius the way this song was put together and everyone involved did their job and allowed Allen to do his thing and kill the vocals!! He’s so soulful and nerdy looking but cool looking and just unique!! And I know there are many Caucasian’s that have soulful voices.. typically it a different sound..and to make sure no thing I’m being racist or stereotypical..I grew up going to my church which was mostly..what most call.. African American..and It was outside of the town I grew up in that where I usually went on the sabbath Saturday as and the way we sang was one way..typically very soulful and loud and out there..I also grew up in a really small town that had Almost every race you could think of..it was town where we were all pretty much family!! The church in my town had mostly Caucasian’s.. for sabbath/Saturday..the way they sang was different but still incredible!! I compare it to like R&B and Pop well say both awesome just different sounds..anyway sorry I went off on a tangent!! The first time I heard Allen I was told to close my eyes and just listen ..I assumed he was an African American man..just from his sound..I opened my eyes and was blown Away and I appreciated it!!! He mixes so much into his music and it is just mind blowing to witness!! I love him so much!! Again sorry for the long comment
i was blessed to be able to see him perform this live before he released it.
All women look beautiful NATURALLY!!!!!!! BOOMBAAH!!!!!
I hope you do a video like this of the song you wrote call barb wire just the melody is just so awesome
Just that little teaser and I’m out of my mind with anticipation... 👌🏽👌🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That drum fill at 2:34 really gets me
This man is dope 🔥 love your craft brother, from here in Australia 👌

I'm addicted to this song!!
YAAAAAASSSS!!!! One of my favorites!
OMG!!! So perfect. ❤️
The fact that the bg vocals mess up, hitting the high note too early AND you kept it in the released take just fits the vibe of the song so well.
Another gem 💎
Perfect symphony! Love it!

You all have such beautiful souls.
I have all of your songs on repeat! 🥺❤️
Love this! Much needed!
A truly timeless classic. Beautiful guys.
This song is amazing
We need this!
This gave me chills
Great song 😍😍😍 I really appreciate the fact you didn't give back handed comments about how women shouldn't wear makeup or do their hair like the majority of songs claiming to "uplift" women do. Your right we don't need advice. But at the same time some women are not comfortable in their own skin and they put on makeup and lose weight because society, magazines, other women, and men are telling them they should. I feel Your song was saying that's cool if if you wanna lose weight or wear makeup and be a Maybelline baby but know that you shouldn't seek everyone else approval or advice of society and it's expectations and Chase after what these magazines are saying because you look beautiful the way you are.Dont change to seek approval of people who are being disrespectful of you in the first place. And Everyone else needs to shut the heck up and stop giving input to bodies that AREN'T theirs. Society is sick one person needs to "get a bigger ass" to be beautiful another needs to "lose that stomach" one needs to "smile more, guys will like you better" one "needs to hide that red on her face a guy will never kiss that" but another needs to "stop wearing makeup" "let's go swimming on the first date to see what she really looking like" oh this magazine says "how to lose 100 pounds in 75 days" IT IS SO REPULSING
Wow, damn! Those horn arrangements are so sweet, as is everything else.
Love it and the vibes feels like soul food 🥰💯
From one Allan to another.. Love your music man! 👌
I've seen you 4 times. You and your band are really amazing. Love the new release!!
crushing it as always. so sweet without being cheesy. love it.
You make me soul shine!!! GREAT MUSIC!
