Ever since she left me
I sure feel all alone
A little misunderstanding

I can't get her on the telephone
Hanging out down on Main Street
Living in a different world

Standing around with the gang on the corner
Talking about my girl


My girl - She was the world to me
She's gone - Away across the street
My girl - Is just a memory

She's been so long away

She didn't have to leave me

She didn't have to run
She didn't have to go without a word to anyone
I hope she's doing alright

I got no way to know
Unless she gets to hear this song
Hear it on the radio


My girl - She was the world to me
She's gone - And that's a tragedy

My girl - Is just a memory
She's been so long away


[Break]

I hope she gets the message

Got to get her back, you know
Gonna track her down, I'll find that girl
Gonna tell her that I love her so

Put the word on the grapevine
Spread it all around the world
Sooner or later I know I'm gonna get her

I'm talking about my girl
My girl


My girl (x12)
