"Can I Sit Next to You Girl" is a song by Australian hard rock band AC/DC. It is the seventh track of their Australian album "T.N.T.", released in December 1975 (see 1975 in music), and is also the sixth track on the international version of "High Voltage", released in May 1976. Written by Angus Young and Malcolm Young, it was AC/DC's first original song.

An earlier version, "Can I Sit Next to You, Girl" (with a comma; see image) was recorded by AC/DC with original lead singer Dave Evans, and was released as a single the same year. However, that version featured slightly different lyrics and musical arrangement than "T.N.T."'s rerecording, and has never been officially released overseas.

The song is written through a point of view that a man finds a girl that is nice to him at school. In this case, the man would ask the girl if he could sit next to her.

There is a music video of this song that features Dave Evans on vocals.

This song was often covered at live shows by controversial Australian sleaze rock band Candy Harlots and appeared on their 1992 single "Sister's Crazy".
