Hey! Little Girl

About Hey! Little Girl

"Hey! Little Girl" is a song by the American musician Del Shannon. It was recorded in October 1961 and was released later that year. In the lyrics, the narrator professes his love to a girl that he only barely knows. The girl has recently been dumped by her boyfriend, but the narrator proposes to begin a relationship with her and thus make her feel better. As such, the song is more optimistic than some of Shannon's other songs, such as "Runaway" and "Keep Searchin' (We'll Follow the Sun)". The background music involves both string and brass instruments. "Hey! Little Girl" reached No. 38 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, but was a much bigger hit in the United Kingdom, where it reached No. 2. more »

Last night I walked through the streets of my town. 
I saw the shadow of a girl I had known. 
And through the shadows I could see many tears, 
And so I walked up and I said, 

"Hey, little girl, 
Let me fix your broken heart. 
I'll replace each broken part that's gone. 
Because I know I could try, 
Hey, little girl, my heart's been broken too." 

"Do you remember last September 
When I met you at a dance? 
You were with a guy named Joe 
And all at once he said you had to go. 
I never even caught your name!" 

"Hey, little girl, 
I've been searching everywhere, 
Here, there, everywhere for you 
Because I have cried for you 
Hey, little girl, I'm so in love with you!" 

"Hey, little girl, 
I can see that he was mean. 
He shattered all the dreams you had. 
So come with me and see 
Hey, little girl, I'll make all your dreams come true! 
Come, little girl, I'll make all your dreams come true!"
