I've got sunshine on a cloudy day,
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May,

I guess, you'd say,
What can make me feel this way,
My girl...(My girl)
Talkin' 'bout, my girl...(My girl)

I've got so much honey the bees envy me,
I've got a sweeter song , than the birds in the tree

Well, I guess you'd say,
What can make me feel this way,
My girl...(My girl)
Talkin' 'bout, my girl...(My girl)

Woo...Hoooooooooo...

(Instrumental Bridge)

I don't need no money, fortune or fame,
I've got all the riches baby, one man could claim. Well...

I guess you'd say,
What can make me feel this way,
My girl...(My girl)
Talkin' 'bout, my girl...(My girl)
