Oh My Lover

This song spent four weeks at #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart in spring 1963. George Harrison was found guilty of ‘subconscious plagiarism’ of this song when he released “My Sweet Lord”. The verdict caused a tidal wave in the music world with many artists rushing to add credits to their songs in which they borrowed similar tunes or were heavily inspired by.

[Intro]
(Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
(Doo-lang-doo-lang)

[Verse 1]
He's so fine (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
Wish he were mine (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
That handsome boy over there (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
The one with the wavy hair (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
I don't know how I'm gonna do it (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
But, I'm gonna make him mine (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
He's the envy of all the girls (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
It's just a matter of time (Doo-lang-doo-lang)


[Verse 2]
He's a soft-spoken guy (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
Also, seems kinda shy (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
Makes me wonder if I (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
Should even give him a try (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
But then I know he can't shy (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
He can't shy away forever (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
And, I'm gonna make him mine (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
If it takes me forever (Doo-lang-doo-lang)

[Bridge]
He's so fine (Oh, yeah)
Gotta be mine (Oh, yeah)
Sooner or later (Oh, yeah)
I hope it's not later (Oh, yeah)
We got to get together (Oh, yeah)
The sooner, the better (Oh, yeah)
I just can't wait, I just can't wait
To be held in his arms

[Verse 3]
If I were a queen (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
And,he asked me to leave my throne (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
I'd do anything that he asked (Doo-lang-doo-lang-doo-lang)
Anything to make him my own (Do-lang-do-lang-do-lang)

[Outro]
For he's so fine (So fine)
So fine (So fine)
So fine (So fine)
So fine (So fine)
So fine (So fine)
Oh, yeah (So fine)
So fine (So fine)
Uh-huh
