It's like...there she was
It's all...this sweet lady
Man she was lookin so tight..that it drove me crazy (Insane)
Any man would go broke tryin to...tryin to look at this lady
Oh how I wish that I..wasn't so shy, wasn't that I
Never had experience in...In chasing ladies
Oh did I miss my chance..Hell I must be crazy
If I ever get the chance..The chance to see her again
That's when I tell her that...I need her so

(She was my) Favorite Girl
(She was) sweet as candy
and I gotta tell her that I...wanna make her my baby
and if we get the chance...the chance to meet yeah
That's when I tell her that I...need her so
Now I'm back on the block in my new jaguar
Tryin to find this lady
Hittin' every corner, man I won't stop
(Till I) Till I find my baby
Back down an alley way...I'm goin crazy
If it hadn't crossed my mind...I wouldn't find this lady
Reality,(oh oh) my minds playin tricks on me
How could this be...(That she) She could have this effect on me
Right before my very eyes (there she was) That's where I found her
And then I told her that I..need her so
*Chorus x2*
Listen up here fellas (fellas) If you ever find that girl (girl)
That girl you really want (Yeah)Go ahead and tell her
You don't wanna wait to long (to long) she might find another (yeah)
You don't wanna leave yourself (oh) sayin
Shoulda, Coulda,
Woulda
*Chorus x 2*
(She was my) Favorite Girl
(She was) sweet as candy (she was as sweet as candy)
and I gotta tell her that I (oh yeah)...wanna make her my baby (my baby)
and if we get the chance...the chance to meet (the chance, the chance)
That's when I tell her that I...need her so
She's so sweet baby
I need her so
