I told my friend I'd check for you
|
He told me that he liked you too
|
But then I saw him kissing you
|
I could've died when he said, hands off she's mine
|
Said hands off she's mine
|
Hands off she's mine
|
Hands off she's mine, I want her all the time
|
Hands off she's mine, hands off she's mine.
|
|
I knew that this was real although
|
as usual, comes mixed up with fear.
|
I knew that I could wait
|
Although it just might take a thousand years.
|
Said hands off she's mine
|
Hands off she's mine
|
Hands off she's mine, until the end of time
|
Hands off she's mine, hands off she's mine.
|
|
La, la, la, la,
|
La, la, la, la,
|
La, la, la, la,
|
La, la, la, la.
|
|
Now we're going steady, been together several weeks
|
I check out all the other guys who we see on the streets
|
When I say, hands off she's mine
|
Hands off she's mine
|
Hands off she's mine, it takes up all my time
|
Hands off she's mine, hands off she's mine.
|
|
I said hands off me daughter
|
I tell ya get yer hands off me daughter
|
C'mon mek me said don't mess around on ya,
|
C'mek mek me tell ya don't want ta get ya.
|
|
La, la, la, la,
|
La, la, la, la,
|
La, la, la, la,
|
La, la, la, la.
|
|
Funny how the best things never last for every day
|
I thought she was my girlfriend
|
'Till I heard that someone else was saying,
|
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
|
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
|
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
|
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
|
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
|
Hands off she's mine.
