Is there anybody going to listen to my story

All about the girl who came to stay

She's the kind of girl you want so much it makes you sorry

Still you don't regret a single day

Ah girl, girl



When I think of all the times I've tried so hard to leave her

She will turn to me and start to cry

And she promises the earth to me and I believe her

After all this time I don't know why

Ah girl, girl



She's the kind of girl who puts you down when friends are there

You feel a fool

When you say she's looking good she acts as if it's understood

She's cool ooh, ooh, ooh

Girl, girl



Was she told when she was young that pain would lead to pleasure?

Did she understand it when they said

That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure?

Will she still believe it when he's dead?

Ah girl, girl



Ah girl, girl
