Jessie is a friend
   Yeah I know, he's been a good friend of mine
   But lately something's changed, it ain't hard to define
   Jessie's got himself a girl, and I wanna make her mine
  
   'Cause she's watching him with those eyes
   And she's loving him with that body, I just know it
   And he's holding her in his arms, late late at night
  
   You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl
   I wish that I had Jessie's girl
   Where can I find her, a woman like that?
  
   I play along with the charade
   There doesn't seem to be a reason to change
   You know I feel so dirty when they start talking cute
   I want to tell her that I love her but the point is probably moot
  
   'Cause she's watching him with those eyes
   And she's loving him with that body, I just know it
   And he's holding her in his arms, late late at night
  
   You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
   I wish that I had Jessie's girl
   Where can I find her, a woman like that?
  
   Like Jessie's girl
   I wish that I had Jessie's girl
   Where can I find her, a woman
   Where can I find her, a woman like that?
  
   And I'm looking in the mirror all the time
   Wond'ring what she don't see in me
   Yeah I've been funny I've been cool with the lines
   Ain't that the way love's supposed to be?
  
   Tell me, where can I find her a woman like that?
  
   You know I wish that I had Jessie's girl
   I wish that I had Jessie's girl
   I want Jessie's girl
   Where can I find her, a woman like that?
  
   Like Jessie's girl
   I wish that I had Jessie's girl
   I want, I want Jessie's girl
