Lyrics:
I've lost my girl
Would you believe it?

Half past four I heard
a knocking at my door
Saw the postman with
a letter in his hand
Half past four I heard
a knocking at my door
Saw the postman with
a telegram in his hand
It says: It's off. I'm gone baby.
S.W.A.L.K

I've lost my girl,
would you believe it?
I've lost my girl,
I just can't believe it!

She ran away with my friend
My very best friend
I knoww I'll never ever ever
take her back again
She ran away she ran away
with my best friend
I know I'll never ever ever
want her back again
It's off. I'm gone baby.
S.W.A.L.K.

I've lost my girl.
Would you believe it
I've lost my girl.
I just can't believe it!

She gave me a call,
early one morn'
Said she could not take
no more. That's why she
has packed and gone

It's off. I'm gone baby.
S.W.A.L.K.

I've lost my girl.
Would you believe it?
I've lost my girl.
I just can't believe it!

She's gone with my friend
My very best friend
I know I'll never ever
take her back again
She ran away with my friend
My very best friend
I know I'll never ever ever
take her back again.
It's off. I'm gone baby.
S.W.A.L.K.

I've lost my girl.
Would you believe it?
I've lost my girl.
I just can't beleve it!

Half past eight
she was standing at my gate
Chatting up my mate
and even ask him for a date
Half past ten
she was standing there again
Trying to pretend
that I'm her best friend

It's off. I'm gone baby.
S.W.A.L.K.
Half past eight
she was standing at my gate
Chatting up my mate
and even ask him on a date
Half past ten
she was standing there again
Trying to pretend
that he's just a friend
But:

It's off. I'm gone baby.
S.W.A.L.K.
