600 – The Troggs – With a girl like you (1966)

Escrita por Reg Presley, foi lançada pelos Troggs em julho de 1966 em um compacto que tinha I want you no Lado B. Chegou ao número 1 no Reino Unido já em agosto de 1966.

A letra:


I want to spend my life with a girl like you,
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
And do all the things that you want me to,
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
'Till that time has come that we might live as one
Can I dance with you,
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
I can tell by the way you dress that you're so refined,
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
And by the way you talk that you're just my kind,
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
Girl why should it be that you don't notice me
Can I dance with you,
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
Baby baby, is there no chance
I can take you for the last dance
All night long, yeah, I've been waiting
Now there'll be no hesitating
So before this dance has reached the end,
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
To you across the floor my love I'll send,
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
I just hope and pray that I'll find a way to say
Can I dance with you,
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba bah ba ba ba ba
