Strange Names and New Sensations
Man, I Miss That Girl
It was another time and another scene,
It was a-way back when
And I was mad and mean
And I said some words,
But I did not see
It was a closing door
And the fool was me.

Chorus
Man, I miss that girl,
Man, I miss that girl,
Lemme tell ya now,
Oh, my my,
She's a blue-sky girl,
Lemme tell ya,
She's gone, gone, gone,
Oh, I miss that girl.

Well, I pass my time
An' I pay my rent
An' I do my best,
But I aint content
An' there's been a few
Comin' 'round my way,
But they find me cold,
There aint a lot to say,

'Cause I miss that girl . . .

When your window's clean
You can look on through,
You can see what's right,
You can tell what's true;
When your window aint,
You can make mistakes;
You'd better clean on up,
I mean for goodness sakes.

Man, I miss that girl . . .
