Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Loving You Has Made Me Bananas From: Bainbo Date: 24 Oct 08 - 05:56 AM No, no, no. My Girl Bill was by Jim Stafford, who also sang Spiders and Snakes. Both were off the album Spiders and Snakes, but there was another album, called Not Just Another Pretty Foot. (Am I starting to sound nerdy yet?) While my schoolmates were listening to Pink Floyd and Genesis, I'd put some Jim Stafford on the sixth-form record player to universally blank looks. It wouldn't stay on for long. I always thought he was a country-ish singer with a bit of humour. But it turns out he regards himself as a comedian first, who still does a family show at his own auditorium. You can google him. My Girl Bill - it's another of those songs which have rattled round inside my head for 30 years. I'll post the words, if you're interested. |

Subject: Lyr Add: MY GIRL BILL (Jim Stafford) From: Bainbo Date: 24 Oct 08 - 05:27 PM Oh, go on then. You talked me into it. Not that I needed much persuading - it's a bit like virtual performing. Apologies for the British spelling, but it's how I always think of it. MY GIRL BILL (Jim Stafford) Bill walked me to my door last night, And he said: "Before I go There's something about our love affair That I have a right to know." I said: "Let's not stand out here like this, What would the neighbours think? Why don't we just step inside And I'll fix us both a drink." CHORUS: My girl Bill, My - my girl Bill. Can't say enough about the way I feel about my girl, My girl Bill. William's hands were shaking As he took his glass of wine And I could see we both felt the same And when his eyes met mine I said: "Who we love and why we love - It's hard to understand So let's just sit here on the couch And face this - man to man. CHORUS "Now, Bill, you know we just left her place And we both know what she said. She doesn't want to see your face And she wishes you were dead. Now, I know we both love her, And I guess we always will. But you're gonna have to find another 'Cos she's my girl, Bill." CHORUS |

I've just checked the related thread at the top of this page, and I see you asked the same question in February last year - and got the lyrics and Jim Stafford's name from Peace. Still. I enjoyed remembering it! |
