You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
If you don't take her out tonight
She's going to change her mind (she's gonna change her mind)
And I will take her out tonight
And I will treat her kind (I'm gonna treat her right)

You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
If you don't treat her right, my friend
You're going to find her gone (you're going to find her gone)
'Cause I will treat her right, and then
You'll be the lonely one (you're not the only one)

You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
You're gonna lose (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
I'll make a point of taking her away from you
Watch what you do, yeah
The way you treat her what else can I do?

(You're gonna lose that girl)
(You're gonna lose that girl)

You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
You're gonna lose (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
I'll make a point of taking her away from you
Watch what you do, yeah
The way you treat her what else can I do?

If you don't take her out tonight
She's going to change her mind (she's gonna change her mind)
And I will take her out tonight
And I will treat her kind (I'm gonna treat her right)
You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)
You're gonna lose that girl (yes, yes, you're gonna lose that girl)

    Listening to the lyrics makes me wonder if John wrote it to himself...

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
