Lyrics

My Girl

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day

When it's cold outside, I've got the month of May

Well, I guess you'll say

What can make me feel this way?

My girl (My girl)

Talkin' 'bout my girl (Talkin' 'bout my girl)

I've got so much honey the bees envy me

I've got a sweeter song, yeah, than the birds in the trees

Well, I guess you'll say

What can make me feel this way?

My girl (My girl, my girl)

Talkin' 'bout my girl (Talkin' 'bout my girl)

Hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey

Ooh

I don't need no money, yeah, fortune, or fame

I've got all the riches, baby, one man can claim (That one man can claim)

Well, I guess you'll say

What can make me feel this way?

My girl (My girl, my girl)

Talkin' 'bout my girl (Talkin' 'bout my girl)

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day

With my girl

I've even got the month of May

With my girl

Talkin' 'bout my girl

Ooh, yeah, my girl

Ooh, my girl
