The Girl Is Mine Lyrics
[Intro: Brandy]
Excuse me, can I please talk to you for a minute?
[Verse 1: Destiny’s Child]
Take a minute girl, come sit down
What's been happening? What's been happening?
Take a minute, take a minute girl
Take a minute girl, come sit down
What's been happening? What's been happening?
Take a minute, take a minute girl
[Pre-Chorus: Destiny's Child]
Come too far for you to feel alone
Don't let him walk over your heart
We've come too far for you to feel alone
In your face, I can see passion
Come too far for you to feel alone
Don't let him walk over your heart
We've come too far for you to feel alone
In your face, I can see passion
[Chorus: Brandy & Destiny's Child]
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine, mine, mine, mine
Excuse me, can I please talk to you for a minute?
[Post-Chorus: Destiny's Child]
You're my girl, you're my—
You're my girl
You're my girl, you're my girl
[Verse 2: Destiny’s Child]
Take a minute girl, come sit down
What's been happening? (What's been happening?)
What's been happening? (What's been happening?)
Take a minute, take a minute girl
Take a minute girl, come sit down
What's been happening? (What's been happening?)
What's been happening? (What's been happening?)
Take a minute, take a minute girl
[Pre-Chorus: Destiny's Child]
Come too far for you to feel alone
Don't let him walk over your heart
We've come too far for you to feel alone
In your face, I can see passion
Come too far for you to feel alone
Don't let him walk over your heart
We've come too far for you to feel alone
In your face, I can see passion
[Chorus: Brandy & Destiny's Child]
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
[Bridge: Brandy & Destiny's Child]
Think it's time we got this straight
Let's sit and talk face to face
There is no way I could mistake, the girl is mine
Think it's time we got this straight
Let's sit and talk face to face
There is no way I could mistake, the girl is mine, mine, mine, mine
[Chorus: Brandy & Destiny's Child]
Excuse me, can I please talk to you for a minute?
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine (Girl)
It's not hard to see, the girl is mine, mine, mine, mine
Excuse me, can I please talk to you for a minute?

Were 99 Souls confident the song would be a hit?
These days, you can get a decent gauge of what’s happening from online reaction and things like Shazam, but we were always a bit nervous. We were assured this would be a big record, but it’s a relief for us that it’s done well because if it hadn’t, things would obviously be a bit tougher for us now....
Was it difficult getting clearance to use both tracks?
In terms of publishing, it wasn’t too difficult. The writers all liked the song and – not to sound too crass – they knew it wouldn’t hurt their bank balances. All the Destiny’s Child girls signed off on it straight away; Beyonce really likes the track from what we’ve been told… One of two big obstac...
How did 99 Souls convince Brandy to get involved in the song?
The writers were all on board – Rodney Jerkins wrote it and is one of the all-time greats! The issue was the master of the song.
