Jessie is a friend
Yeah, I know he's been a good friend of mine
But lately something's changed that ain't hard to define

Jessie's got himself a girl and I want to make her mine

And she's watching him with those eyes

And she's loving him with that body I just know it
And he's holding her in his arms late at night


You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find a woman like that


I play along with the charade
There doesn't seem to be a reason to change

You know, I feel so dirty when they start talking cute
I wanna tell her that I love her
But the point is probably moot


Cause she's watching him with those eyes
And she's loving him with that body I just know it

And he's holding her in his arms late at night

You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl

I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find a woman like that
Like Jessie's girl

I wish that I had Jessie's girl
Where can I find a woman
Where can I find a woman like that


And I'm looking in the mirror all the time,
Wondering what she don't see in me

I've been funny, I've been cool with the lines
Ain't that the way love supposed to be


Tell me, where can I find a woman like that!

You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl
I wish that I had Jessie's girl

I want Jessie's girl
Where can I find a woman like that
Like Jessie's girl,

I wish that I had Jessie's girl,
I want I want Jessie's girl
