She's only a girl
And her voice is peculiar
And her eyes are strange
She's prone to be willful
You try to cheer her up some
But she's impervious to change

She's only a girl
She dresses in black all of the time
Wears an orthopedic shoe
It's some sort of uglification she's into

She's a hundred and ten
Maybe five foot five
She won't eat meat
But she'll eat you alve
She's only a girl
But she's big time

She's only a girl
And I'll tell you about her
At least all that I know
She's from South Carolina
And she came out here
A few years ago
She waits on tables
And she works in a bank
Volunteers at the zoo
She sure ain't lazy
But she is very young
That's why I called you

She's only a girl

Well man, now you seen her, what do you think?
Uh-huh...
Yeah...
Thought you'd say that
No, I'd–
Go ahead...
Of course I know...
No you're wrong there, now listen

Love is blind
And deaf as well
But I love this girl
Can't you tell?
She's only a girl
And she loves me–

Why would someone
Beautiful as she
Love someone old like me
Maybe it's the money
Jeez, I never thought of that
...Believe it or not...
What a horrible thought...
God damn it
