"Hey Girl Don't Bother Me" is a popular single by American vocal group The Tams. Written by Ray Whitley, it was originally released in 1964 and reached number 41 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 and number 10 on the R&amp;B chart. In Canada it reached number 21.
It later became a favourite on the Northern soul scene in the UK, belatedly reaching number one on the UK Singles Chart for three weeks in September 1971.
The single was also number one on the Irish Singles Chart, for one week, the same month. The group appeared on BBC's "Top of the Pops" with the song on eight separate occasions in 1971: August 19 and 26, September 7, 16, 23 and 30, October 7 and December 27.
