Sensitive Kind

J.J. Cale · Other Songs - J.J. Cale

Don't take her for granted

she had a hard time

don't misunderstand her

or play with her mind

treat her so gently

it will pay you in time

you gotta know

she's a sensitive kind



tell her you love her

each and every night

you will discover

she will treat you right

if you believe

i know you will find

there ain't nothing like

a senstitve kind



she gets so lonely

waiting for you

you are the only

thing to help her through

don't take her for granted

she had a hard time

you gotta know

she's a senstitve kind

Sensitive Kind - J.J. Cale

Released during the early 1970s, the track exemplifies Cale's signature style, characterized by gentle guitar work and introspective songwriting that prioritized emotional resonance over complex production. The song reflects the era's shift toward more organic, singer-songwriter focused recordings, where the focus remained squarely on the interplay between the artist's voice and his instrument. As a staple of Cale's discography, it captures the quiet intensity and lyrical clarity that defined his career, offering a timeless listening experience that bridges the gap between folk and rock traditions without relying on heavy instrumentation or dramatic flair.
