Intro:

   (x4)

Verse 1:

(Michael):

                        
Every night, she walks right in my dreams,
                    
Since I met her from the start.
                                         
I'm so proud I am the only one, who is special in her heart.

Chorus 1:

                                     
The girl is mine; the doggone girl is mine.
                                     
 I know she's mine; because the doggone girl is mine.

Interlude:

   (x2)

Verse 2:

(Paul):

                  
I don't understand the way you think,
                        
Saying that she's yours, not mine,
                  
Sending roses and your silly dreams;
                  
Really just a waste of time.

Chorus 2:

                                     
The girl is mine; the doggone girl is mine.
                                     
 I know she's mine; because the doggone girl is mine.

Bridge 1:

(Both):

                               
 I love you more than he, (take you anywhere),
                             
But I love you endlessly, (loving we will share).

                         
So come and go with me, to one town.
                                              
But we, both cannot have her, so it's, one or the other.
                                                   
And one, day you'll dis-cover; that shes's my girl for-ever and ever.

Verse 3:

(Both):

                      
Don't build your hopes, to be let down,
                   
'Cos I really feel it's time.
                           
I know she'll tell you; I'm the one for her,
                    
'Cos she said I blow her mind.

Chorus 3:

                                     
The girl is mine; the doggone girl is mine.
                                         
 Don't waste your time, because the doggone girl is mine.

Interlude:

   (x2)

Verse 4:

                             
She's mine, she's mine, no, no, no, she's mine.

              
The girl is mine,
              
The girl is mine,
              
The girl is mine,
              
The girl is mine.

                         
The girl is mine, (yep), she's mine,
                        (n.)
The girl is mine, (yep), she's mine.

Chorus 4:

                                              
Don't waste your time, because the doggone girl is mine.

The girl is mine.

Break:

(Over , )

(Paul):
 Michael, we're not going to fight about this, okay?
(Michael):
 Paul, I think, I told you; I'm a lover, not a fighter.
(Paul):
 I've heard it all before, Michael,
She told me that I'm her forever lover, you know, don't you remember?
(Michael):
 Well, after loving me, she said she couldn't love another.
(Paul):
 Is that what she said?
(Michael):
 Yes, she said it; you keep dreaming.
(Paul):
 I don't believe it!

Coda:

              
The girl is mine,
              
The girl is mine.
