The girl that I marry will have to be
As soft and as pink as a nursery
The girl I call my own
Will wear satins and laces and smell of cologne

Her nails will be polished and, in her hair,
She'll wear a gardenia and I'll be there
`stead of flittin?, I'll be sittin?
Next to her and she'll purr like a kitten

A doll I can carry, the girl that I marry must be

<instrumental>

Her nails will be polished and, in her hair,
She'll wear a gardenia and I'll be there
`stead of flittin?, I'll be sittin?
Next to her and she'll purr like a kitten

A doll I can carry, the girl that I marry must be
