"The Same Sweet Girl" is a song written and originally recorded by American country singer–songwriter, Hank Locklin.

The song became Locklin's first major hit as a recording artist, reaching the top ten of the Billboard country chart.

The song became a top ten hit, reaching number eight on the Billboard's Country & Western Records Most Played By Folk Disk Jockeys chart.

[6] The song would later be re-recorded several times and would later appear on several compilation albums, including 1997's Send Me the Pillow You Dream On box set by Bear Family Records.

[4] In his review of the box set, Bruce Eder of Allmusic commented that Locklin's earliest recordings (which includes "The Same Sweet Girl") incorporated a more traditional musical style: "They present Locklin doing a rougher, harder honky-tonk brand of music, derived from Texas dance-band roots, but different from the Nashville countrypolitan sound with which he achieved lasting fame -- compared to his later, softer material, this stuff rocks.
