Hey Girl
 
Hey girl, you gotta stop seeing that boy so much
Hey boy, you'd better stop seeing that girl
You know he'll never be any good for you
His type are always messing around.
 
It always seems the same, they want to stop your game
They think you're still that little baby of theirs
But if they only knew, the things you're going through
Hey girl they might understand you.
 
Hey girl, you gotta stop going out with boys like that
And you know it's only for your own good
Protective fathers and mothers think they are helping you
Hey girl don't let them stand in your way.
 
Don't you listen to the words they're telling you
They think you'll never be in love like they were
But give them one more try, hey girl don't say goodbye
This time it's all ended to you.
 
Hey girl won't you listen to me
You don't need to set yourself free
Hey girl don't you hear what I say?
You don't have to go on that way.
 
Hey girl, you gotta stop seeing that boy so much
Hey boy, you'd better stop seeing that girl
You know he'll never be any good for you
Well his type are always messing around.
 
It always seems the same, they want to stop your game
They think you're still that little baby of theirs
But if they only knew, the things you're going through
Hey girl they might understand you.
 
Hey girl they might understand you
Hey girl they might understand you.
