I Like That Girl

by NRBQ

from the CD "Grooves In Orbit"

play with capo on first fret to match key on album

(verse)

Well I like that girl

She's the cutest little thing I know plus she likes me back

And all mine from head to toe

Yeah she never makes me wonder when it comes to that

Well my head's in a whirl 'cause I like that girl

(verse)

At a beauty contest

She's the kind that just couldn't lose she ain't lost one yet

'Cause in a gown and dress-up shoes

She's a fine one to talk about etiquette

In a dress she's the best in a beauty contest

(bridge)

She's so complementary--she looks good with me

Just like every fine duet if I'm a lead note she's my harmony

(verse)

Well I like that girl

I believe I believe it's love who could argue that?

Now it's somethin' I'm certain of

Yeah I can't help thinkin' she's where it's at

Search the whole wide world but I like that girl

(instrumental verse)

(verse)

Well I like that girl

Every time I take a look in those eyes I see everything

So it should come as no big surprise

That she's even got me thinkin' 'bout diamond rings

She's a genuine pearl. Well I like that girl

(bridge)

Just like Cinderella. The prince solved the mystery

I conducted the test myself. The slipper looks just the right size to me

(repeat first verse)
