(Gi-i-i-irls, gi-i-i-irls)

I won't forget, the year of '59
Made all the hop, and had a swingin' time
Movin' and a-groovin' with Mary Lou
And, ooh, that Peggy Sue

That was a
Very, very, very good year for girls
A very, very, very good year for girls
But, baby, since we met
It's gonna be the best year yet

(Spoken)
Well, '59 was great, we know, but
How do '60 go

Oh, what a year, my heart was in a whirl
'Cause everyday, I met a cuter girl
Call her up, make a date off we go
But, baby, even though

That was a
Very, very, very good year for girls
A very, very, very good year for girls
But, baby, since we met
It's gonna be the best year yet

(Spoken)
Well, now we know that year was fun, but
How'd you do in '61

In '61, I had myself a ball
That was the year, that really top'em all
Barbara Joe, Sally Ann, Mary Jean
And each one was a queen

That was a
Very, very, very good year for girls
A very, very, very good year for girls
But, baby, since we met
It's gonna be the best year yet

But, baby, since we met
It's gonna be the best year yet
