Lyrics:

Under my thumb,
The girl who once had me down.
Under my thumb,
The girl who once pushed me around.
It's down to me,
The difference in the clothes she wears.
Down to me, the change has come,
She's under my thumb.
Ain't it the truth babe?

Under my thumb,
Is the squirmin' dog who's just had her day.
Under my thumb,
A girl who has just changed her ways.
It's down to me, yes it is,
The way she does just what she's told.
Down to me, the change has come,
She's under my thumb.
Ah, ah, say it's alright,

Under my thumb,
Is a Siamese cat of a girl.
Under my thumb,
She's the sweetest, hmmm, pet in the world.
It's down to me,
The way she talks when she's spoken to.
Down to me, the change has come,
She's under my thumb.
Ah, a-take it easy, babe.
Yeah.

[Instrumental break.]

It's down to me, oh, yeah.
The way she talks when she's spoken to.
Down to me, the change has come,
She's under my thumb.
Ah, yeah, it feels alright.

Under my thumb,
Her eyes are just kept to herself.
Under my thumb, well I,
Well I, I can still look at someone else.
It's down to me, oh, that's what I said,
The way she talks when she's spoken to.
Down to me, the change has come,
She's under my thumb.
Say, it's alright.

Take it easy, babe.
Take it easy, babe.
[Fade.]
Feels alright.
Take it, take it easy, babe.
