Al Jolson — I Want A Girl lyrics

Lyrics

When I was boy my mother often said to me
Get married boy and see how happy you will be
I have looked all over but no girly can I find
Who seems to be just like the little girl I have in mind
I will have to look around
Until the right one I have found
I want a girl just like the girl
That married dear old Dad
She was a pearl and the only girl
That Daddy ever had
A good old-fashioned girl
With heart so true
One that loves nobody else but you
I want a girl just like the girl
That married dear old Dad
I want a girl just like the girl
That married dear old Dad
She was a pearl and the only girl
That Daddy ever had
A good old-fashioned girl
With heart so true
One that loves nobody else but you
I want a girl just like the girl
That married dear old Dad
