Used To Be My Girl Lyrics


Yea, I feel sexy right there
Yea, feel it all this way
B. McKnight, we're Tim & Bob
This is not another love song
[V1]
See, I know what you're thinkin'
You're feelin' like a lucky guy
I was the same way
'cause she was hard to come by
I was on her so hard
That I almost lost my hustle
So go 'head, playboy, do your thing
Don't be mad if she calls my name
[Chorus]
Walkin' around, supportin' her, holdin' her hand

Doin' it big like you're the man
But she was my girl
She used to be my girl
I must admit that she's a 10
Bet she didn't tell you about way back when
When she was my girl
She used to be my girl
[V2]
See, I know how you're feelin'
I used to be in your shoes
So calm down with the attitude
You're just a next somebody new
You never know how much she's feelin' you
So be happy that you got her
Don't know much about you, dude
Sorry, I gotta break the news
[Hook]
She's still thinkin' 'bout me
And I'll tell you why
She couldn't even hold her head up when you walked by
Well, don't go hatin' on me
It's just a game
You want her, you got her
Take her, you got her
To me it's all the same
[Chorus]
Walkin' around, supportin' her, holdin' her hand
Doin' it big like you're the man
But she was my girl
She used to be my girl
I must admit that she's a 10
Bet she didn't tell you about way back when
When she was my girl
She used to be my girl
Walkin' around, supportin' her, holdin' her hand
Doin' it big like you're the man
But she was my girl
She used to be my girl
I must admit that she's a 10
Bet she didn't tell you about way back when
When she was my girl
She used to be my girl
[Bridge]
Erotic, exotic,
You must admit she's got it
She used to be my girl
Sexy with talent
Built like a stallion
She used to be my girl
You got her so flaunt her
Know everybody wants her
She used to be my girl
'cause you might not be the only
So never leave her lonely
[Hook]
She's still thinkin' 'bout me (she's still thinking 'bout me, and looking here)
And I'll tell you why
She couldn't even hold her head up when you walked by (hey, yea)
Don't go hatin' on me
It's just a game
You want her, you got her
Take her, you got her
To me it's all the same
[Chorus]
Walkin' around, supportin' her, holdin' her hand
Doin' it big like you're the man
But she was my girl
She used to be my girl
I must admit that she's a 10 (she used to be down with me)
Bet she didn't tell you about way back when (she used to be a freak for me)
When she was my girl (we used to hold hands, she used to understand)
She used to be my girl (she used to be down with me)
Walkin' around, supportin' her, holdin' her hand (she used to take trips with me)
Doin' it big like you're the man (she used to wiggle her hips for me)
But she was my girl (she used to lick her lips for me)
She used to be my girl (she used to, she used to)
I must admit that she's a 10 (she used to, she used to)
Bet she didn't tell you about way back when (she used to be my girl)
When she was my girl (she used to be my girl)
She used to be my girl (she used to be my girl)
Yea, yea, yea, yeaa, used to be my girl [x3]
Walkin' around, supportin' her, holdin' her hand
Doin' it big like you're the man
But she was my girl
She used to be my girl
I must admit that she's a 10
Bet she didn't tell you about way back when
When she was my girl
She used to be my girl

Brian McKnight (born June 5, 1969 in Buffalo, New York) is an American singer, songwriter, arranger, producer and one of the prominent singers of his years, specializing in pop and R&B. He is a multi-instrumentalist and plays the piano, guitar, and trumpet.

Embracing an effortless eloquence and cocoa butter smooth persona, the music of Brian McKnight has defined the true meaning of an American soul-man since 1991. Like his spiritual Motown godfathers, this upstate New York native has a velvety voice and silky style that captures the vibe of vintage soul without being old fashion. On his latest disc Ten, that blend can be clearly heard.

While Brian’s aspirations might have seemed like a lofty ambition, the longevity of his career is a testament to the purity of his vision. With the release of Ten, McKnight’s first disc for his new label Warner Bros Records, the Grammy-nominated singer could not be more pleased with the outcome. Without a doubt, the landscape of soul music has gotten younger, but that fact did not hinder McKnight’s creative process.

After 16 million albums sold since his self-titled debut, it would have been too easy for McKnight to simply follow the R&B template of rote romanticism. But on Ten, the artist in him felt the need to be more revealing. Though McKnight has been friends with producers Tim & Bob for over ten years, this is the trio’s first collaboration.

Though Brian has never been the kind of singer/songwriter that one would call political that didn’t stop him from penning “Red, White & Blue,” a heart wrenching ode for the men and women currently at war, teaming up with country star Rascal Flatts.

Currently working on a variety of projects including a talk show and soundtracks for two upcoming Tyler Perry projects, the veteran soul singer could not be happier with the outcome of Ten. For fans of real music, Ten is the perfect addition to the soul cannon.
