My Girl
The Hit Crew Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl)
I've got so much honey the bees envy me
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl)
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Ooh
I don't need no money, fortune, or fame
I've got all the riches baby one man can claim
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl)
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
With my girl
I've even got the month of May
With my girl
The Hit Crew's song "My Girl" is a tribute to the love one feels when they're with someone special. The opening lines, "I've got sunshine on a cloudy day / When it's cold outside I've got the month of May," indicate that the singer is feeling joy and warmth regardless of the external weather conditions. The use of sunshine and May as a metaphor suggests that the singer is experiencing an emotional springtime, which could imply that they have found someone who makes them feel alive.
The following verse, "I've got so much honey, the bees envy me / I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees," reinforces that the subject of the song is in love. Bees are a well-known symbol of industriousness and productivity, while birds frequently represent joy and freedom. These lines suggest that the singer's love is not only fulfilling, but also enviable and delightful.
Finally, the chorus, "My girl (my girl, my girl) / Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl)," reinforces the song's message of love and affection while the song's closing lines reinforce the central theme of the song. "I've got sunshine on a cloudy day / With my girl / I've even got the month of May / With my girl," reminds the listener that love brings a warmth to one's heart and pushes away sadness.
