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 lovin' him with that body, I just know it
Yeah, 'n' he's holding her in his arms
Late, 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 lovin' him with that body, I just know it
And he's holding her in his arms
Late, 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? 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 lookin' 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

Yeah, tell me

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

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