[Instrumental intro]

[Verse]
He’s got a souped up Chevy with a custom trim
and a flamethrower barbie on his deck
He’s got the newest upgrades on his phone and his ‘Mac
(even the ones you haven’t heard 'bout yet)
Yeah he’s got every kind of bolt-on, go-faster stripes
And the latest tech – but what the heck!
I Got The Girl.

[Chorus]
She’s my girl now and she’s not afraid to show it
My girl now and we want the world to know it
And my feet don’t touch and my mind’s in a whirl
Cos, yeah – I Got The Girl.

[Verse]
He spends every other evening down at the gym
doin’ a mind-numbing number of repeats
Got one eye on the mirror cos it’s all about him
He thinks he’s got potential to compete
He sure looks good in Lycra working up a sweat
He's got the pecs – but what the heck
 I Got The Girl.

[Chorus]
She’s my girl now and she’s not afraid to show it
My girl now and we want the world to know it
And my feet don’t touch and my mind’s in a whirl
Cos, yeah – I got the Girl!

[Bridge]
Well, we all grew up together in the same small town
And we watched him as he played the girls and fooled around
And now he’s come to realize that he’s the clown
Do we laugh about it – well, you bet!

[Verse]
He’s going back to college to improve his grades
Wants a magnum cum laude by next Fall
Thinks he looks pretty cool in his aviator shades
Says he’s gonna be a pilot after all
Channeling Tom Cruise (you ain’t seen nothing yet)
And I wear specs – but what the heck!
I Got The Girl.

[Outro Chorus]
She’s my girl now and she’s not afraid to show it
My girl now and we want the world to know it
And my feet don’t touch and my mind’s in a whirl
Cos, yeah – I Got The Girl.
Woo-hoo! I got the Girl!
