Met this girl the other night on the streets of new orleans
She said: I'm trying to find myself on the road to Tennessee
She had a diamond in one ear and patches on her jeans
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, the girl she got to me

Jenny has a way with words yeah she always speaks in quotes
She said she ain’t ever met a man like me before
She told me she just won a trip to mexico
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, on the radio
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, someday she will go

When I close my eyes, I swear that I can see her
Then they open wide, she’s a world away
And I swear she’s mine, so does every man who meets her
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, she’s the girl that got away
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, she’ll coming back someday

Jenny like coffee late at night, it helps her sleep
She doesn’t cook but she’s got a million recipes
She’s got a tattoo but doesn’t know what it means
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah when she was with me

When I close my eyes, I swear that I can see her
Then they open wide, she’s a world away
And I swear she’s mine, so does every man who meets her
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, she’s the girl that got away
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, but she'll coming back someday

What I feel, what I feel, I feel for her, ain't gonna away
What I feel, what I feel, I feel for her, ain't gonna away
What I feel, what I feel, I feel for her, ain't gonna away
What I feel, what I feel, I feel for her, feel for her, feel for her

When I close my eyes, I swear that I can see her
When they open wide, she’s a world away
And I swear she’s mine, so does everyone who meets her
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

When I close my eyes, I swear that I can see her
Then they open wide, she’s a world away
And I swear she’s mine, so does every man who meets her
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, she’s the girl that got away
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, but she’s coming back someday
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, she’s the girl that got away (what I feel, what I feel, I feel for her, feel for her)
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, but she’s coming back someday
