Jamie

Jamie used to be my girl
She used to be my girl
It's hard to imagine her with someone else
Besides myself, mmm...
Watch what you say about Jamie
Because she, she used to be my girl
I don't wanna see her kissin no one else
Besides myself
When you're lovin Jamie
You gotta hold her tight, ah, ah, ah
Cause she's the kind of girl
That has to have it every night, every night
If you wondered how I should know
Oh, let me tell you so
You see, Jamie used to be my girl
She used to be my girl
It's hard to imagine her with someone else
Besides myself, no, no, no
So whatever you hear about Jamie [Keep it to yourself]
Cause she used to be my girl
Can't stand to hear about her with no one else
Besides myself, naw Jamie, oh [Babe]
Me and Jamie used to
We used to be so close, ah, ah, ah
Out of all the girls I've dated
I loved her the most, her the most
Don't know how she got away from me
But I wish that I could make her see, her see
Jamie (Jamie) used to be my girl
She used to be my girl (Ow, why won't you be my girl)
Jamie used to be my (Oh, oh), she used to be my
She used to be my girl
Ooh...ooh...
Ooh...ooh...
You see, I trained her just the way I wanted her
I taught her every trick in the book
It ain't fair for her to give it all to some other guy
Jamie, you know you got me hooked
(I'm hooked, I'm hooked on your love, babe, ow)
She used to be my girl
I can't stand to see her with nobody else
‘Cause I still want her, want her for myself
Jamie used to be my girl (Oh, Jamie, Jamie)
To me she's still my girl
Watch what you say to me, Jamie
Watch who you're playing with, Jamie
‘Cause to me you're still my girl (Oh)
Jamie, Jamie, Jamie, she used to be my girl
She used to be my girl, oh
Jamie, ow, don't talk about Jamie, hoo
Don't talk about Jamie, ow, ow, ow
Jamie used to be my girl
She used to be my girl
