Genius in Jeans

I have about 5 versions of this lyric. I favor these two, complete opposite. One makes the singer seem sensitive and honest respect, the other is Rock n roll and closer to how it's written..
I honestly think my own version is better but I can't that kind of sound
Notice Tom Petty vocals in one version. Please help with a version you like better

    My lyrics trigger Ai

    Well, she's a genius when she walks
    a genius when she talks
    a groove so sweet
    She could make world peace
    and everybody grows
    from all the things she knows
    she's a genius in jeans
    she's a genius
    And it's rubbin off on me

    I saw her at that brand new target store Reaching for the top row
    go one more
    She glided down and said
    "Man , these ain't cheap"
    I said '"I only got a peak"
    She walked away with heels like
    deaths been beat
    I'd love to live forever at her feet
    I let her go, but hey yo, I don't know
    I saw her intellect glow

    Well, she's a genius when she walks
    a genius when she talks
    a groove so sweet
    She could make world peace
    and everybody grows
    from all the things she knows
    she's a genius in jeans
    she's a genius
    And it's rubbin off on me

    Next week at the mall
    And there she goes
    Breaking up a fight between
    Two big bros
    All she had to do is walk on by
    They had denim in their eyed

    Now, she's creating jobs here in this town
    She could run for Mayor
    Win hands down
    She could solve a problem
    One, two, three
    Can you feel the relief?

    She's she's a genius when she walks
    a genius when she talks
    a groove so sweet
    She could make world peace
    and everybody grows
    from all the things she knows
    she's a genius in jeans
    she's a genius
    And it's rubbin off on me

    Well, she didn't go Harvard
    but she's a bachelorette
    a master of movement
    a doctor of sweat

    Well, she's a genius when she walks
    a genius when she talks
    a groove so sweet
    She could make world peace
    and everybody grows
    from all the things she knows
    she's a genius in jeans
    she's a genius
    And it's rubbin off on me
  • Love it! I definitely prefer the first version, which is yours I think.

    "a groove so sweet" sums up the first version for me. It just glides effortlessly. The subdued vocal feels just right.

    Really this should be on a record somewhere. I was bopping away with it the whole way. Really engaging.

    Wonderful song. Really like it.

    Thanks man, appreciate that. I will likely sing it myself , but I like that production and feel, some kind of hybrid production. See what I can add to it

    You could have written this for Jarvis Cocker out of Pulp, he would have given this the justice it deserves.

    It's an outstanding piece of work that deserves a much greater exposure.

    Joy to listen,

    Thank you,

    @sidshovel thanks! Great review. Never heard of Jarvis or his band will search it.

    There's a few loose parts in this I want to tighten it up at later time

    But least I know few people like it, thanks again!
