Used To Be My Girl
Good lovin'
The girl's got plenty good lovin'
Ask me how I know and I'll tell you so
She use to be my girl, I
I respect her when she was mine
I used to neglect her
She wanted more than I could give
But as long as I live
She'll be my girl, she
She used to be my girl
She used to be my girl
She used to be my girl
She has a charming personality
The girl was so right for me
She's my girl
And if I had a chance
I know I would take her back
As a matter of fact
Right away that day
Not only good lookin' , the girl was so smart
You can't beat her cooking
Ask her how I know and I'll tell you so
She use to be my girl
Deep down inside I still love her
I would place no one above her
She's warm and sensitive
For as long as I live, she'll be my girl
And if I had a chance
I'd take her back, God knows
As a matter of fact
Right away, by today
Good lovin'
The girl's got plenty good lovin'
Ask me how I know and I'll tell you so
She used to be my girl, my girl
She used to be, used to be my girl
She used to be my girl
She used to be my girl
She used to be my girl...
