Jessie is a friend 
Yeah, I know he's been a good friend of mine 
But lately something's changed that ain't hard to define 
Jessie's got himself a girl and I want to make her mine 

And she's watching him with those eyes 
And she's loving him with that body I just know it 
And he's holding her in his arms late at night 

You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl 
I wish that I had Jessie's girl 
Where can I find a woman like that 

I play along with the charade 
There doesn't seem to be a reason to change 
You know, I feel so dirty when they start talking cute 
I wanna tell her that I love her 
But the point is probably moot 

Cause she's watching him with those eyes 
And she's loving him with that body I just know it 
And he's holding her in his arms late at night 

You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl 
I wish that I had Jessie's girl 
Where can I find a woman like that 
Like Jessie's girl 
I wish that I had Jessie's girl 
Where can I find a woman 
Where can I find a woman like that 

And I'm looking in the mirror all the time, 
Wondering what she don't see in me 
I've been funny, I've been cool with the lines 
Ain't that the way love supposed to be 

Tell me, where can I find a woman like that!

You know, I wish that I had Jessie's girl 
I wish that I had Jessie's girl 
I want Jessie's girl 
Where can I find a woman like that 
Like Jessie's girl, 
I wish that I had Jessie's girl, 
I want I want Jessie's girl
