Lyrics I Want a Girl - Al Jolson

I Want a Girl

When I was boy my mother often said to me\nGet married boy and see how happy you will be\nI have looked all over but no girly can I find\nWho seems to be just like the little girl I have in mind\nI will have to look around\nUntil the right one I have found\nI want a girl just like the girl\nThat married dear old Dad\nShe was a pearl and the only girl\nThat Daddy ever had\nA good old-fashioned girl\nWith heart so true\nOne that loves nobody else but you\nI want a girl just like the girl\nThat married dear old Dad\nI want a girl just like the girl\nThat married dear old Dad\nShe was a pearl and the only girl\nThat Daddy ever had\nA good old-fashioned girl\nWith heart so true\nOne that loves nobody else but you\nI want a girl just like the girl\nThat married dear old Dad
