Girls Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Prettiest girl that you ever seen
Just popped out of a magazine
Pretty eyes looking at you now
But still you’re worried somehow

[Verse 2]
Oh Elvis, you know how it is
I can tell by that look on your face
Girls, girls

[Verse 3]
The sun and the moon and the stars in the sky
Kinda makes you wonder why
The grass on the ground
And the wind in the hair
I know there’s a girl for me somewhere

[Chorus]
Girls, girls
Girls, girls

[Verse 4]
I was walking my head was in a whirl
I got dizzy and I stood on a hill
She couldn’t know the way she made me feel
But she was pretty
She was a
[Chorus]

[Outro]
I was a lucky sperm that made it against great odds
And I never lost my youthful enthusiasm
