Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been lonesome all my life because I've live alone
Gee! you ought to see this girl, she's there from head to toes
Never had a little girl that I could call my own
My home has been most place that I, could hang my hat
But everything has changed today, now what do you think of that?

[Chorus]
I've found the girl I want
I've found the girl I want
Met her 'round the corner, boys, a walking down the street
Oh Boy Oh Boy
Like her smile and like her style for
I've kissed the girl I want I've squeezed the girl I want
Going to be a wedding day between the first and last of May
For I've found the girl I want

[Verse 2]
Gee! you ought to see this girl,
She's there from head to toes
Has the face, the figure and she has the classy clothes,
She's got me going goodness knows,
I don't know where I'm at
Ad she's going to be my wife,
now what do you think of that?

[Chorus]
