I Got A Girlfriend
Queers · Other Songs - Queers
Even though things don't go right, I know here love for me is true
I love to love her, I want you to know
I'd love to scream out "I do"
Sometime soon you'll realize that she's tougher than you
I got a girlfriend (4x)
I got a girlfriend and now things turn out okay
