Lyrics:

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 

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
