You're Going To Lose That Girl
The Beatles · Help! (Remastered) [2009]
You're gonna lose that girl
If you don't take her out tonight
she's gonna change her mind
And I will take her out tonight
And I will treat her kind
You're gonna lose that girl
You're gonna lose that girl
If you don't treat her right, my friend
You're gonna find her gone
'Cause I will treat her right and then
You'll be the lonely one
You're gonna lose that girl
You're gonna lose that girl
You're gonna lose
I'll make a point of taking her away from you
Yeah, the way you treat her, what else can I do
You're gonna lose that girl
You're gonna lose that girl
You're gonna lose
I'll make a point of taking her away from you
Yeah, the way you treat her, what else can I do
If you don't take her out tonight
she's gonna change her mind
And I will take her out tonight
And I will treat her kind
You're gonna lose that girl
You're gonna lose that girl
You're gonna lose that girl
You're Going To Lose That Girl
