That Was My Girl
[Intro]
That was my girl
[Verse 1]
If the girl displayed a smile
That almost drove the fellas wild
That was my girl (That was my girl)
If your composure sort of slips
The moment that you saw her lips
That was my girl (That was my girl)
[Pre-Chorus]
Unlike a deck of cards where there's four of a kind
There's only one of her and she's all mine
[Chorus]
If the sight of her brightens your world (If it brightens your world, yeah)
It just had to be nobody (Had to be nobody)
It had to be no one (Had to be no one)
It just had to be none other (Had to be none other)
My girl (My girl)
[Verse 2]
Knowing just how I reacted
When to her I was attracted
That was my girl (That was my girl)
She captured every busy eye
As she went casually strolling by
That was my girl (That was my girl)
[Pre-Chorus]
As rare as a mink with yellow fur
You'll find one of them before you find one of her
[Chorus]
She's the only kind like her in the world
Talkin' 'bout nobody (Talkin' 'bout nobody)
Said I'm speakin' of no one (Speakin' of no one)
I'm just rappin' 'bout nobody (Rappin' 'bout nobody)
But my girl (My girl)
[Refrain]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Talkin' 'bout my girl (Whoo-hoo-hoo, what a girl)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Talkin' 'bout my girl
[Bridge]
If beautiful and rare creation
Was not your imagination
That was my girl (That was my girl)
You want the girl, no need to try
Forget the girl, I'll tell you why
That was my girl (That was my girl)
[Pre-Chorus]
As rare as a mink with yellow fur (Whooo!)
You'll find one of them before you find one of her
[Chorus]
She's the only kind like her in the world (Wooo)
Talkin' 'bout nobody (Talkin' 'bout nobody)
Said I'm speakin' of no one (Speakin' of no one)
I'm just rappin' 'bout nobody (Rappin' 'bout nobody)
But my girl (My girl)
[Outro]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Talkin' 'bout my girl
Whoo-hooo-hooo, my girl
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Talkin' 'bout my girl
