Poor Girl Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She doesn't have pretty clothes to wear
She's just a poor girl, but I don't care
My friends all say she's just no good
Because she lives over town in a bad neighborhood
[Bridge]
But when she walks with me
I feel so fine
I got to show the world, this little girl is mine
[Chorus]
Just because she's a poor girl
Doesn't mean she's a bad girl
I know she's a good girl
Oh yeah, she's my girl
[Verse 2]
They say she's wild
But that's not true
No one knows her, the way I do
She's sweet and kind
And so full of love
Yeah, she's everything that this boy has been dreaming of
[Bridge]
But when she walks with me
I feel so fine
I got to show the world, this little girl is mine
She doesn't have pretty clothes to wear
She's just a poor girl, but I don't care
My friends all say she's just no good
Because she lives over town in a bad neighborhood
[Bridge]
But when she walks with me
I feel so fine
I got to show the world, this little girl is mine
[Chorus]
Just because she's a poor girl
Doesn't mean she's a bad girl
I know she's a good girl
Oh yeah, she's my girl
[Verse 2]
They say she's wild
But that's not true
No one knows her, the way I do
She's sweet and kind
And so full of love
Yeah, she's everything that this boy has been dreaming of
[Bridge]
But when she walks with me
I feel so fine
I got to show the world, this little girl is mine
[Chorus]
Just because she's a poor girl
Doesn't mean she's a bad girl
I know she's a good girl
Oh yeah, she's my girl
[Chorus]
Just because she's a poor girl
Doesn't mean she's a bad girl
I know she's a good girl
Oh yeah, she's my girl
[Outro]
Just because she's a poor girl
Doesn't mean she's a bad girl...
Just because she's a poor girl
Doesn't mean she's a bad girl
I know she's a good girl
Oh yeah, she's my girl
[Chorus]
Just because she's a poor girl
Doesn't mean she's a bad girl
I know she's a good girl
Oh yeah, she's my girl
[Outro]
Just because she's a poor girl
Doesn't mean she's a bad girl...
