Real Estate
Wild Child Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My girl's not alone
My girl won't answer her phone
She's my girl, my girl, my girl, my girl, my girl
Leave her alone
My girl, left me today
My girl, left nothing to say
She's my girl, my girl, my girl, my girl, my girl
She wouldn't stay.
My girl, she just had to be
My girl, she had to be free

She's my girl, my girl, my girl, my girl, my girl, my girl
My girl, girl, my girl, my girl, my girl, my girl.
