Girlfriend
Nilsson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

People, let me tell about the girlfriend
She's a warm-hearted woman who love me till the end
People, let me tell about the girlfriend
She's a one-boy cuddly toy, my up, my down, my pride and joy

People, let me tell about the girlfriend
Whether you like it or not, there's a lot to be learned
By the boyfriend
About the girlfriend

People, let me tell about her, she's so fine
Well, on a warm Sunday morning
There's nothing could be better than a girlfriend

People, let me tell about the girlfriend
She's a warm-hearted woman who love me till the end
People let me tell about the girlfriend

People let me tell about her, she's so fine
But on a warm Sunday morning just to walk, it blows your mind
Girlfriend
She's a girlfriend





People let me tell about the girlfriend
She's a warm-hearted woman who love me till the end
