You’re Not My Girl Lyrics

[Intro:]
Ah
That's right
Rock with me now
Give it to me like
Oww! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Just re-

[Verse 1]
I hear them talking 'cause they seen us around
Got them guessing about what's really going down
Yeah, and if they find out that we do what we do
Girl, I doubt if they'd believe it was true
Yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
If we continue this way we'll only just hurt each other
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Go through the motions, so we don't blow our cover
Yeah

[Hook]
You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl
[Verse 2]
Indiscretion makes this love affair sweet
Without these secrets, it would feel so incomplete
Yeah, so we should keep our quiet nights between us
So we'll retain the urgency when we touch

[Pre-Chorus]
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
If we continue this way we'll only just hurt each other
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Go through the motions, so we don't blow our cover

[Chorus]
You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl

[Bridge]
Now you can rock to the rhythm of the beat that don't stop
And as long as you do yours, I'll do my job
Yeah, 'cause I really like this good thing that we've got
So we'll just keep it a secret baby
You're not my girl

[Pre-Chorus]
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
If we continue this way we'll only just hurt each other
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Let's just keep it a secret baby, you're not my girl
[Chorus]
You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl

[Chorus]
You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl
