I used to be so down and out
I used to be so blue
Now the only thing I talk about
The only thing I do
Is spin around like a school kid
Just off the merry-go-round
I'm dizzy but it's cause I'm headed
To the one good thing I've found

(Chorus:)
One thing as good as gold
I'm nothing without you to hold
One thing I know in this world
Is I need you to be my girl

I got so good at hiding
I couldn't find myself
But baby you got me smiling
And feeling like someone else
Yeah you changed my makeup
I ain't the same sad clown
Ever since you showed up
Hey this ain't the same sad town

(Chorus:)
One thing as good as gold
I'm nothing without you to hold
One thing I know in this world
Is I need you to be my girl

One thing as good as gold
I'm nothing without you to hold
One thing I know in this world
Is I need you to be my girl

One thing as good as gold
I'm nothing without you to hold
One thing I know in this world
Is I need you to be my girl

Be my girl
You're the one thing
