Bobby's Girl

(You’re not a kid anymore,

You’re not a kid anymore.)

When people ask of me,

“What would you like to be now that you’re not a kid anymore?”

(You’re not a kid anymore.)

I know just what to say,

I answer right away.

There’s just one thing I’ve been wishing for.

I wanna be Bobby’s girl,

I wanna be Bobby’s girl.

That’s the most important thing to me.

And if I was Bobby’s girl,

If I was Bobby’s girl.

What a faithful, thankful girl I’d be.

Each night I sit at home,

Hoping that he will phone.

But I know Bobby has someone else.

(You’re not a kid anymore.)

Still in my heart I pray,

There soon will come the day,

When I will have him all to myself.

I wanna be Bobby’s girl,

I wanna be Bobby’s girl.

That’s the most important thing to me.

And if I was Bobby’s girl,

If I was Bobby’s girl,

What a faithful, thankful girl I’d be.

What a faithful, thankful girl I’d be.

I wanna be Bobby’s girl,

I wanna be Bobby’s girl,

I wanna be Bobby’s girl. (Fade)
