Day 121 - My Girl


So, there are very few songs for which I will offer no critique, but this is one of them.  I watched the movie on BET the other day about the life/careers of the Temptations, and this finale song just made me smile.  The lyrics are below, and it's a simple testament of love.  Whether this is your boo, your friend, your partner, your child, your parent, your relative, or even yourself, love should be simple and beautiful just like this, overall just making your life better.

I've got sunshine
On a cloudy day.
When it's cold outside,
I've got the month of May.

Well, I guess you'll say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl. (My girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl. (My girl)

I've got so much honey
The bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song

Than the birds in the trees.

Well, I guess you'll say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl. (My girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl. (My girl)

Ooooh, Hoooo.

Hey, hey, hey.
Hey, hey, hey.

I don't need no money,
Fortune or fame.
I've got all the riches, baby,
One man can claim.

Well, I guess you'll say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl. (My girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl. (My girl)
