A girl is any female human from birth through childhood and adolescence to attainment of adulthood when she becomes a woman. The term may also be used to mean a young woman.
The English word girl first appeared during the Middle Ages between 1250 and 1300 CE and came from the Anglo-Saxon words gerle (also spelled girle or gurle). The Anglo-Saxon word gerela meaning dress or clothing item also seems to have been used as a metonym in some sense.
Girl has meant any young unmarried woman since about 1530. Its first noted meaning for sweetheart is 1648. The earliest known appearance of girl-friend is in 1892 and girl next door, meant as a teenaged female or young woman with a kind of wholesome appeal, dates only to 1961.
The word girl is sometimes used to refer to an adult female. This usage may be considered derogatory or disrespectful in professional or other formal contexts, just as the term boy can be considered disparaging when applied to an adult man. Hence, this usage is often deprecative. It can also be used deprecatively when used to discriminate against children ("you're just a girl").

When my little girl goes to the movies
Nobody looks at the screen
When my little girl goes to the movies
She steals every scene
My little girl walks in the classroom
She has such style and grace
when everybody there wants to catch her attention
Looking at my little girls face
My little girl gets all the attention
When she walks down the street
Ge wiz she's the centre of attraction
And my little girl looks so neat
And my little girl shore is sweet
One of these days were going to see the preacher
There where the whole world can see
People in the church looking at my little girl
She'll be looking at me
My little girl gets all the attention
When she walks down the street
Ge wiz she's the centre of attraction
And my little girl looks so neat
And my little girl shore is sweet
One of these days were going to see the preacher
There where the whole world can see
People in the church looking at my little girl
She'll be looking at me
And my little girl shore is sweet
And my little girl shore is sweet
Oh my little girl shore is sweet
Oh my little girl shore is sweet
And my little girl shore is sweet
