Original Broadway Cast Of Aint Too Proud -
Ain't Too Proud: The Life and Times of The Temptations (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
My Girl
I got sunshine
On a cloudy day
When it's cold outside
I got the month of May
I guess you'll say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl
There was this fella we'd been scoutin' for a minute
Lived right on Euclid Avenue, one block behind me
Our folks threw some cuts of Jimmy Ruffin
But when he brought his little brother on stage
You know, Otis, man
I been seeing y'all rise for a minute
I was always hoping for my chance to work with you
Be more than a side act for my brother
You've been waiting to work with us?
With a voice like yours?
Hell, man ain't nothing without the right people beside him
I was coming to try to talk you into being a Temptation
Well, talk me into it, then
And that was us
The five "classic" Temptations
First time Smokey heard David, we knew he'd found his muse
I've got so much honey
The bees envy me
I've got a sweeter song
Than the birds in the trees
Well, I guess you'll say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl
Fellas, whatever we had before, it wasn't what we have now
We're something special, to go with that special voice
Nobody's gonna be able to sing it better
Hey, hey, hey
Oh, yeah
Hey, hey, hey
Come on, David
Front and center
This one's all for you
Yeah
I don't need no money, no
Fortune or fame
I've got all the riches, baby
One man can claim
Well, I guess you'll say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl
My girl (talkin' 'bout my girl)
I got sunshine on a cloudy day with my girl
I've even got the month of May with my girl
(My girl, my girl)
Hey, talkin', talkin', talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl
(Talkin' 'bout my girl)
My girl, my girl, my girl
Whoa
On a cloudy day
