486 – The Lovin' Spoonful – Younger girl (1965)

Escrita por John Sebastian, foi lançada em 1965 no discode estréia do Lovin' Spoonful chamado Do you believe in magic?

Duas versões dela apareceram nos charts pop americanos, todas as duas em 1966. The Critters chegou ao número 42 com essa canção e também ao número 38 no Reino Unido. Também foi regravada pelos Hondells, chegando ao número 52.

A letra:

She's one of those girls who seems to come in the spring
One look in her eyes and you forget everything
You had ready to say
And I saw her today, yeah

A younger girl keeps a-rollin' 'cross my mind
No matter how much I try, I can't seem to leave her memory behind

I remember her eyes, soft, dark, and brown
Said she'd never been in trouble, even in the town

A younger girl keeps a-rollin' 'cross my mind
No matter how much I try, I can't seem to leave her memory behind

A younger girl keeps a-rollin' 'cross my mind
And should I hang around, acting like her brother
In a few more years, they'd call us right for each other
And why?
If I wait I'll just die, yeah

A younger girl keeps a-rollin' 'cross my mind
No matter how much I try, I can't seem to leave her memory behind

I remember her eyes, soft, dark, and brown
Said she'd never been in trouble, even in the town

A younger girl keeps a-rollin' 'cross my mind

She's one of those girls who seems to come in the spring
One look in her eyes and you forget everything
