Songtexte I Want a Girl (Just Like the Girl That Married Dear Old Dad) - Al Jolson

When I was a boy, my mother often said to me
Get married, boy, and see how happy you will be
I have looked all over but no girlie 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 who love 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 who love nobody else but you
I want a girl just like the girl that married dear old Dad
