Included on the group's 1972 album A Lonely Man, "Oh Girl" centers on a relationship on the verge of break-up.</p>
<p>The narrator, portrayed by the song's author Eugene Record, expresses concern that the break-up may prove unbearable for him ("Oh girl/I'd be in trouble if you left me now/'Cause I don't know where to look for love/I just don't know how"), while knowing that staying will be no better ("I could save myself a lot of useless tears/Girl I've got to get away from here"; "Better be on my way, I can't stay here").</p>
<p>"Oh Girl" was the Chi-Lites' first and only number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at that position in May 1972 for one week. The single also reached the top position of the Billboard R&amp;B Singles chart the following month, remaining in that position for two weeks.[1]Billboard ranked it as the No. 13 song for 1972. In addition, it reached number fourteen on the UK Singles Chart in July 1972.</p>

A Dunhill label and then a subsequent cover version. The Dunhill label went to number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1967. This version also reached number 2 on the UK Singles Chart. The lead singer on the Mamas &amp; the Papas version was Michelle Phillips. It was the first time that Phillips was given the lead over Cass Elliot.</p>
<p>The song was also included on the group's 1967 album The Mamas &amp; The Papas Deliver.<br />
The song feature overdubbed instruments that don't appear on the album versions of the songs, Dedicated to the One I Love used the same mix for both single and album. However, there are differing versions of the song available.</p>
<p>The original single and album releases had a running time of 2:54, and featured a double-tracked lead vocal, as well as a prominent piano track. A shorter version of the song, which the band can be seen lip-synching to on various television shows in the sixties, has a running time of only 2:12, because it omits the only occurrence of the song's verse, as well as the subsequent chorus, and instead goes straight into the instrumental bridge. In this mix the piano is less prominent and only one of Michelle Phillips' vocal tracks is audible.</p>
