(Spoken) Ring, Ring. "Hello, hello, hi, is Cyndi in?"

"No, who is this?"

"What do you mean, who is this? This is Jimmy Hart, the mouth of the south. Where is she?"

"She's gone to the Rick Springfield concert!"

"Rick Springfield!?!"

I called my chick

On the phone last night

Her mother said

She was gone for the night

She had two tickets

To a rock n' roll show

To see her Working Class hero

So I jumped in my car

And I cruised downtown

I could hear the music playing

From a mile around

So I got me a ticket

And I walked inside

I could see him standing

there in the spotlight

(chorus)

Eat Your Hart Out, Rick Springfield

'Cause she's my girl

And she will always be

The only girl for me

Ain't no rock 'n roll singer

Gonna take her away from me!

I called my chick the very next day

She was watching TV, Dr. Noah Drake

She said, "He' so handsome and he's so cool."

She made me so sick I wanted to puke!

So I got me a guitar

And some red tennis shoes

And I'm learning how to sing

And I'm learning how to move

I'm writing this song down

Just for you

Then all the girls

Will think I'm so cool!

(Repeat chorus)

Eat Your Hart Out, Rick Springfield

'Cause she's my girl

And she will always be

The only girl for me

Ain't no rock 'n roll singer

Gonna take her away from me!

(spoken)

"Jessie's Girl!?! You wanna steal Jessie's Girl… now you want my girl!"

"Hey baby, you're cruisin' for a bruisin', Rick!"

"When I get my hands on you - whoa!"

"Jessie's Girl, my girl, Everybody's Girl!"
