There's a sweet little girl that lives down the street
Some people think she's square but I think she's sweet
You can see her every day, strolling up and down the way
Looking so pretty and this is what I say

She's got it
Ooh baby, she's got it
Ooo baby, she's got it
I can't do without her

Big blue eyes, long black hair
Dimpled cheeks and she's no square

She's got it
Ooh baby, she's got it
Ooo baby, she's got it
I can't do without her

Ruby lips, shapely hips
When she walks down the street all the cats flip

She's got it
Ooh baby, she's got it
Ooo baby, she's got it
I can't do without her

She loves to sing, hot rod queen
She's real gone in everything

She's got it
Ooh baby, she's got it
Ooo baby, she's got it
I can't do without her, ahhh

She loves to sing, hot rod queen
She's real gone in everything

She's got it
Ooh baby, she's got it
Ooo baby, she's got it
I can't do without her

When the music's hot, she loves to bop
She'll dance till the jukebox pop

She's got it
Ooh baby, she's got it
Ooo baby, she's got it
I can't do without her

Yeah, she's got it
Oh, oh, she's got it
Ooo, she's got it
Yeah, she's got it
Oh, oh, oh, yeah, ahh
