[Verse 1]
My girl, she breathes hellfire
And my girl, she feeds my desire
My girl Sadie, she's the wind in my sails
A puss-in-boots lady with a cat-of-nine tails
Coming after you, honey - feet, don't fail me now

[Pre-Chorus]
My girl, she's bareback rider
And my girl, she's Lady Godiva
She a full-time lover, no mon ami
Sweeter than honey from a honeybee
And it all rubs off on little old me, oh my

[Chorus]
Slipping in and out of love
Slipping in and out of love
Slipping in and out of love
Slipping in and out of love

[Verse 2]
My girl, she smokes barbed wire
And my girl can't get no higher
I made it with the lady with a one-track mind
Diamonds in the rough, they're so hard to find
Day after day it's the same old grind
And grind and grind and grind
And grind and grind and grind

[Guitar solo]

My girl, my girl, my girl, my girl
My girl, my girl, my girl

[Pre-Chorus]
My girl, she's bareback rider
And my girl, she's Lady Godiva
She a full-time lover, no mon ami
Sweeter than honey from a honeybee
And it all rubs off on little old me, oh my

[Chorus]
Slipping in and out of love
Slipping in and out of love
Slipping in and out of love
Slipping in and out of love

[Outro]
Oh, my girl

Aerosmith is an American rock band, sometimes referred to as “The Bad Boys from Boston” and “America’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band.” Formed in 1970, its founding members are Steven Tyler (vocals, keyboards, harmonica), Tom Hamilton (bass), Joey Kramer (drums), Joe Perry (guitar, vocals) and Brad Whitford (guitar).

The band released their eponymous debut studio album in 1973 featuring the single “Dream On,” which remains one of their most popular songs. Their next four albums made them rock stars across the US and Canada, spawning the hits “Sweet Emotion”, “Last Child”, “Walk This Way”, “Back In The Saddle”, “Draw The Line”, and a cover of “Come Together” for the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Soundtrack.

Before the release of their fifth album Draw The Line, the band’s substance abuse began to destroy them. Perry quit after a backstage fight with Tyler in 1979, and Whitfield left two years later. Despite moderate sales, the band’s fifth and sixth albums were considered flops when compared to the band’s past accomplishments. When Perry and Whitfield returned in 1984, their eighth album Done With Mirrors was also deemed unsuccessful despite strong reviews. Doug Herzog (MTV, VH1)
