I'll play along with this charade That doesn't seem to be a reason to change You know I feel so dirty when they start talking cute I wanna tell her that I love her but the point is probably moot 'Cause she's watching him with those eyes And she's lovin' 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 Why can't I find a woman like that? Like Jessie's girl I wish that I had Jessie's girl Why can't I find a woman Why can't I find a woman like that? And I'm lookin' in the mirror all the time Wonderin' what she don't see in me I've been funny, I've been cool with the lines Ain't that the way love's supposed to be Tell me why can't I find 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 Why can't I find a woman like that? Like Jessie's girl I wish that I had Jessie's girl I want, I want Jessie's girl
