“Forget That Girl (live)”

Forget that girl, ah-ah
She’ll only make you sad someday
Forget that girl
She’ll never make you happy
She’s in love with him, my friend
She’s in love with him

Forget that girl, ah-ah
She’ll only bring you down again, ah-ah
Forget that girl, ah-ah
She’ll only make you lonely (Lonely)
She’s in love with him, my friend (Yeah)
She’s in love with him

There was a time when she could really love you (Ah)
When she was thinking only of you (Ah, ah)
But now she’s put herself above you (Ah, ah)
And there’s nothing I can do

Forget that girl, ah-ah
She’ll only bring you down again, ah-ah
Forget that girl, ah-ah
She’ll only make you lonely (Lonely)
She’s in love with him, my friend
Whoa, she’s in love with him, oh yeah
She’s in love with him, yeah-ah, oh, woo!

Forget that girl (Forget that girl), forget that girl (Forget that girl)
Forget that girl (Forget that girl), forget that girl (Forget that girl)

Davy: Thank you. Thank you.
Micky: And now, let us take you if we may into the land of yesteryear, down to the Cajun country of Louisiana and the sock-it-to-me sound of Mike Nesmith and “Sweet Young Thing”.
