Biografía:
America’s Favorite Jim Stafford Songs
In 1974, Jim wrote and recorded his first chart making song, “The Swamp Witch”, produced by his boyhood friend Kent LaVoie, (known as Lobo). He followed with a gold single, “Spiders and Snakes”, which stayed on the American pop charts for 26 weeks. The hits just kept coming and included “My Girl Bill”, “Wildwood Weed”, and the wonderfully satirical “Cow Patti”, written for the Clint Eastwood movie, Any Which Way You Can, in which Jim appeared.

Jim Stafford
[Intro]
F Am Gm F
F Am
Bill walked me to my door last night
Gm C
And he said, 'Before I go
F Am
There's something about our love affair
Gm C Eb
That I have a right to know
Cm7 F
I said, "Let's not stand out here like this
Bb
What would the neighbors think
F Dm
Why don't we just...step inside
Bb C F
And I'll fix us both a drink"
Bb C F
My girl, Bill
Bb C F
My, my, girl, Bill
Bb C A Dm
Can't say enough about the way I feel
Bb
About my girl
C F
My girl, Bill
F Am
William's hands were shaking
Gm C
As he took his glass of wine
F Am
And I could see we both felt the same
Gm C Eb
When his eyes met mine
Cm7 F Bb
I said, "'Who we love and why we love
Bbm
It's hard to understand
F Dm
So let's just sit here on the couch
Bb C F
And face this, man to man"
Gm C F
My girl, Bill
Gm F
My, my, girl, Bill
Bb C Dm
Can't say enough about the way I feel

About my girl
C F Am Gm C
My girl Bill
F Am
Bill, you know we just left her place
Gm C
And we both know what she said
F Am
She doesn't want to see your face
Gm C
And she wishes you were dead
Cm7 F
Now, I know we both love her
Bb Bbm
And I guess we always will
F Dm
But you're gonna have to find another
Bb C F
'Cause she's my girl...Bill
Gm C F
My girl, Bill
