Lyrics

I told my friend I'd check for you
He told me that he liked you too
But then I saw him kissing you
I could've died when he said
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
I want her all the time
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
I knew that this was real although
It usually comes mixed with fear
I knew that I could wait although
It just might take a thousand years
Said hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Until the end of time
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
Now we're going steady
Been together several weeks
I check out all those other guys
Who we see on the streets
When I say
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
It takes up all my time
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off me daughter
I tell ya get your hands off me daughter
C'mon mek me said don't mess around on ya
C'mek mek me tell ya don't want ta get ya
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
Funny how the best things
Never last for every day
I thought she was my girlfriend
Till I heard that someone else was saying
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine
Hands off, she's mine...
