I Want a Girl: Just like the Girl that Married Dear Old Dad

[Verse 1]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. [Chorus}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. [Verse 2]by the old mill stream there sits a couple old and gray,Though years have rolled away, their hearts are young today,Mother dear looks up at dad with love light in her eye,He steals a kiss, a dons embrace, while ev\u27ning breezes sigh,They\u27re as happy as can be, so that s the kind of love for me
