Man, I Miss That Girl - Steve Forbert

Strange Names and New Sensations

Man, I Miss That Girl

It was another time and another scene,

It was a-way back when

And I was mad and mean

And I said some words,

But I did not see

It was a closing door

And the fool was me.

Man, I miss that girl,

Man, I miss that girl,

Lemme tell ya now,

Oh, my my,

She’s a blue-sky girl,

Lemme tell ya,

She’s gone, gone, gone,

Oh, I miss that girl.

Well, I pass my time

An' I pay my rent

An' I do my best,

But I aint content

An' there’s been a few

Comin' 'round my way,

But they find me cold,

There aint a lot to say,

'Cause I miss that girl.

..

When your window’s clean

You can look on through,

You can see what’s right,

You can tell what’s true;

When your window aint,

You can make mistakes;

You’d better clean on up,

I mean for goodness sakes.

Man, I miss that girl.
