Lyrics Boy Wanted (1959 Stereo Version) - Ella Fitzgerald
I've
Just
Finished
Writing
An

Calling
For
A
Boy.
No
Half-Hearted
Romeo
Or
Flirt
Is
Meant;
That's
The
Kind
I'd
Not
Employ.
Though
Anybody
Interested
Can
Apply,
He
Must
Know
A
Thing
Or
Two
To
Qualify.
For
Instance:
He
Must
Be
Able
To
Dance.
He
Must
Make
Life
A
Romance.
I
Said
A
Boy
Wanted,
One
Who
Can
Smile;
Boy
Wanted,
Lovable
Style.
He
Must
Know
How
To
Say
Yes!
When
I
Look
At
A
New
Dress.
Oh,
I'll
Be
Ready
When
The
Right
One
Calls,
And
I'll
Start
Vamping
Him
Until
He
Falls;
Yes,
If
He
Proves
To
Be
The
Right
Little
Laddie,
I'll
Make
Him
Glad
He
Answered
My
Ad.
He
Must
Like
Musical
Shows,
And
He
Must
Wear
Snappy
Clothes.
Yes,
That
Is
My
Story,
And
To
It
I'll
Stick;
No
Glory
In
Having
A
Hick.
He
Needn't
Be
Such
A
Saint,
But,
Oh!
He
Dassent
Say
'Ain't.'
I
Don't
Care
If
His
Bankroll
Totals
Naught,
For
We
Can
Live
On
Love
And
Food
For
Thought.
If
He's
A
Scholar,
When
I
See
Him
I'll
Holler,
My
Lad,
I'm
Glad
You
Answered
My
Ad!'
