Lyrics

I Love That Girl

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well, she come around here

In her sixty-five dress

With her eyes stuck open

And her hair in a mess

With her head screamin': No

And her heart sayin': Yes

And I love that girl

It was back in that house

Full of drunkards and thieves

When you first saw me risin'

Up off of my knees

And she said: Do you think

You could show me that please?

And I love that girl

Well, I love that girl

And I love that girl

Well, I love that girl

Well, I love that girl

We'd been left by the road

In the back of the night

We'd been stranded by dreams

And then shot full of moonlight

They took us downtown

And they read us our rights

And I love that girl

So we married and said

That we never would part

And there hasn't been

Even one small change of heart

If it ended up now

I wouldn't know where to start

And I love that girl

Well, I love that girl

And I love that girl

Well, I love that girl

Well, I love that girl

You lose it all

Then you're ascending

Into a love

That's never ending

Now they're boilin' the oil

On the bridge at the gates

The King's men in the castle

They're lying in wait

She says: Now is the time

We must not hesitate

And I love that girl

Then she wakes me with coffee

And kisses my head

And she starts to explain

About something she's read

I say: Darlin you haven't heard

A word that I've said

And I love that girl

Well, I love that girl

And I love that girl

Well, I love that girl

Well, I love that girl
