Girl Lyrics

hey ma i got a girl
we got it made
she's everything in my world
dont fret, i'll be home soon
i packed a bag and soon
i'll be close to you
it means so much to me
that she's in love with me
this girl she grew up strong
she takes no shit and knows
what's right and what's wrong
sometimes i close my eyes
and picture her
beneath the blue and white sky
we don't need anyone
just the two of us and all that we
have become
we don't need anyone
they wouldn't understand
a single thing that we've done
she's gonna be my girl all night
be my girl every day
you know i'll have it bad
if the girl i got
becomes the girl that i had
you know i'll have it bad
if the girl i got
becomes the girl i once had

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

noone posted...i'm the first one...someday you will look at me, i'm the one who posted at first...the first of a billion people! this is such a great song! he simply lets his mom know, that he is happy and in love with a girl. they don't need someone else in the world and at the end he thinks about what would happen after this relationship with her. so cute, that he tells this to his mother. i love ben!

I love the beat and this song is cute. I'm curious, what do the last couple lines mean, "you know i'll have it bad if the girl i got becomes the girl i once had" is he saying he has it bad if things don't work out but he can look back and remember the girl, or he has it bad if they keep breaking up and going back together, meaning she's the girl he once had, and then keeps going back to her?
