[Verse 1: Nora O'Connor]
Every night she walks right in my dreams
Since I met her from the start
I'm so proud I am the only one
Who is special in her heart

[Chorus: Nora O'Connor]
The girl is mine
The doggone girl is mine
I know she's mine
Because the doggone girl is mine

[Verse 2: Robbie Fulks]
I don't understand the way you think
Saying that she's yours not mine
Sending roses and your silly dreams
Really just a waste of time

[Chorus: Robbie Fulks]
Because she's mine
Mhm, the doggone girl is mine
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine

[Bridge: Robbie Fulks, Nora O'Connor, Both]
I love you more than she
(Take you anywhere)
But I love you endlessly
(Loving we will share)
So come and go with me to one town
But we both cannot have her
So it's one or the other
And one day you'll discover
That she's my girl forever and ever
[Verse 3: Robbie Fulks & Nora O'Connor]
Don't build your hopes to be let down
'Cause I really feel it's time
Though she'll tell you I'm the one for her
'Cause she said I blow her mind

[Chorus: Robbie Fulks, Nora O'Connor, Both]
The girl is mine
The doggone girl is mine
Ah, don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine

[Post-Chorus: Robbie Fulks, Nora O'Connor, Grant Tye, All]
She's mine, she's mine
No, no, no, she's mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine
The girl is mine (Mine, mine)
She's mine (Mine, mine)
Yep, she's mine (Mine, mine)
She's mine (Mine, mine)

[Chorus: Nora O'Connor, Robbie Fulks & Nora O'Connor]
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine
The girl is mine
[Interlude: Robbie Fulks, Nora O'Connor]
Nora (Oh, here we go)
We're not gonna fight about this, okay?
Okay Robbie, but I think I already told you, I'm a lover, not a fighter
I'm a lover, not a fighter, I've heard that before
She told me I'm her forever lover, you know?
Well, after loving me, Robbie, she said she could never, she couldn't love another
No, well, she's not a gay person, she's ordinary

[Outro: Robbie Fulks, Nora O'Connor, Both]
I don't believe it (Mine, mine)
No, the girl is mine (Mine, mine, mine)
No, no, no, she's mine (Mine, mine)
She's mine, mine, mine, mine, mine (Mine, mine, mine)
Straighter than an arrow, mine (Mine, mine)
I'm experimenting right now, okay? (Mine, mine, mine)
You keep experimenting, I'm sticking with the tried and true
(Mine, mine)
The girl is mine (Mine, mine, mine)
Listen to me, Nora (The girl is mine) (Mine, mine)
No (La-la-la-la, I don't hear you)
(Mine, mine, mine)
