Pearl Jam - Of The Girl Lyrics






oh he deals em off, off the top, ties em off
fills it up, with his past, gets carried away
oh half his life, a hand me down, wasted away
of he fills it up, with the love, of a girl
oh he left it alone, drilled the pain, with money to buy
how he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
oh he chose a path, heavy the fall, quarter to four
fills his night, with the thought, of a girl
how he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway

Pearl Jam Of The Girl Comments
  1. D.... F....

    Other real masterpiece of one of the most underrated rock album ever

  2. D.... H....

    When this album came out I was still in the military and was actually on a deployment to Saudi Arabia and I found this album at the base store. This song (and whole album) helped get me through. This album and Veedon Fleece and Common One by Van Morrison.

    D.... H....

    Interestimg! The song has middle Eastern vibe.

  3. t.... ....

    Stone wrote the lyrics and music for this one. About a woman he was involved with in the 90s.
    More info in my playlist...

  4. D.... B....

    Great album by far

  5. m.... a....

    it's like the 23 of us that have commented here are in on a secret. it seems as if hardly anyone knows this track, and like it's our own little secret that we share together

    m.... a....

    Yes man

    m.... a....

    This entire album is a secret, so underrated

  6. P.... N....

    Binaural is the most misunderstood album of all time

  7. M.... H....

    If you guys are looking for some new (or old) tunes, be sure to check out my playlist, "Gen X Mix"; it has all the good stuff, including Pearl Jam. :)

  8. B.... C....

    Super underrated.

  9. R.... B....

    This is the ultimate song to listen to with headphones. Love the change dropping on the floor in the background.

    R.... B....

    what part? where?

    R.... B....

    This is the second comment to mention listening to this song with headphones... Given that the album is called "Binaural" I wonder if the entire album was meant to be heard through headphones? I'm gonna have to try it...(especially with this song, ambiance is SO palpable)

  10. P.... W....

    Was this album recorded on tape?

  11. j.... ....

    Oh he deals 'em off, off the top, ties 'em off
    Fills it up with his past, gets carried away
    Oh, half his life, a hand-me-down, wasted away
    Oh, he fills it up with the love of a girl

    Oh, he left it alone, drilled the pain with money to buy

    How he makes his getaway
    How he makes his getaway

    Oh, he chose a path, heavy the fall, quarter to four
    Fills his mind with the thought of a girl

    How he makes his getaway
    How he makes his getaway
    How he makes his getaway
    Getaway

    Amanda Trees I agree. I got the used CD for $4 . It’s great.

    A.... T....

    This is 18 years young, it is the old stuff

    A.... T....

    @Bryce King I was thinking the same thing! As a 21 year old, Binaural is one of the older albums to me.
