I Want You to Be My Girl Lyrics

I love you, baby
And I want you to be my girl
Well, come on baby let's go downtown
Run, jump, kid around
I love you, baby
And I want you to be my girl

Well, come on, baby, I love you so
I will never, never let you go
Come on, baby, will you treat me nice
Please don't put my love on ice.
I love you, baby
And I want you to be my girl

Come and take me by the hand
Tell me I'm your lover man
We'll have fun, just we two
You for me, me for you, oh-oh.
I love you, baby
And I want you to be my girl

[Instrumental Interlude]

Well, come on, baby, I love you so
I will never, never let you go
Come on, baby, will you treat me nice
Please don't put my love on ice
I love you, baby
And I want you to be my girl

Come and take me by the hand
Tell me I'm your lover man
You for me, me for you
We'll have fun, oh, oh, oh.
I love you, baby
And I want you to be my girl

Well, I love you, baby
Love you, baby
Love you baby
I love you, baby
And I want you to be my girl

Franklin Joseph "Frankie" Lymon (September 30, 1942 – February 28, 1968) was an African American rock and roll/rhythm and blues singer, best known as the boy soprano lead singer of a New York City-based early rock and roll group, The Teenagers. The group was composed of five boys, all in their early to mid teens. The original lineup of the Teenagers, an integrated group, included three African American members, Frankie Lymon, Jimmy Merchant and Sherman Garnes, and two Puerto Rican members, Herman Santiago and Joe Negroni.

The Teenagers' first single, 1956's "Why Do Fools Fall in Love", was also their biggest hit. After Lymon went solo in mid-1957, both his career and those of the Teenagers fell into decline. By age 26, he was found dead in his grandmother's bathroom from a heroin overdose. Read more on Last.fm.
