This Little Girl of Mine
Love Unveiled: The Everly Brothers' Ode to Devotion
Lyrics
Wella, oh yeah
Expression of excitement or affirmation
Wella, oh yeah
Continuation of excitement or affirmation
Oh yeah
Reiteration of excitement
Oh yeah
-Do you know that this little girl of mine
Introduction of the subject: the singer's little girl
I want you people to know
Desire to share information about the little girl
This little girl of mine
Affirmation of the singer's connection with the little girl
I take her everywhere I go
Declaration of taking the little girl everywhere
One day I looked at my suit
Observation of the singer's new suit
My suit was new
Recognition of the suit being new
I looked at my shoes
Observation of the new shoes
And they were too
Acknowledgment that the shoes are also new
And that's why I, I, I, I,
Expression of love for the little girl despite material concerns
Oh, I love that little girl of mine
Affirmation of love for the little girl
Oh do you know that this little girl of mine
Reiteration of the little girl making the singer happy
Makes me happy when I'm sad
Recognition of the little girl's positive impact on the singer's emotions
This little girl of mine
Affirmation that the little girl loves the singer even when he's in a bad mood
Loves me, even when I'm bad
Recognition of the little girl's unconditional love
She knows how to love me right down to her teeth
Assertion of the little girl's ability to love the singer deeply
If she does any wrong, you know she keeps it from me
Acknowledgment that the little girl keeps any wrongdoing from the singer
And that's why I, I, I, I,
Expression of love despite imperfections
Oh, I love that little girl of mine
Reiteration of love for the little girl
Do you know that this little girl of mine
Continuation of admiration for the little girl
Called me last night about eight
Report of a phone call from the little girl
This little girl of mine
Confirmation of a date with the little girl
Told me that we had a date
Affirmation of the little girl's commitment
She said that she'd meet me at a quarter to nine
Specification of the meeting time
Believe it or not, but she was right on time
Assertion that the little girl was punctual
And that's why I, I, I, I,
Expression of love due to the little girl's punctuality
Oh, I love that little girl of mine
Reiteration of love for the little girl
Do you know that this little girl of mine
Confirmation of the little girl's sense of style
Knows how to dress so neat
Recognition of the little girl's neat dressing
This little girl of mine
Acknowledgment of the little girl's impact on the surroundings
Stops the traffic on the street
Assertion that the little girl attracts attention
When the fellas start whistling, well I don't mind
Acceptance of other people's admiration for the little girl
I can't blame them, 'cause she is fine
Acknowledgment of the little girl's attractiveness
And that's why I, I, I, I,
Expression of love despite others being drawn to the little girl
Oh, I love that little girl of mine
Reiteration of love for the little girl
And that's why I, I, I, I,
Expression of enduring love for the little girl
Oh, I love that little girl of mine
Final reiteration of love for the little girl
