All I Need Is the Girl Songtext
Once my clothes were shabby
Tailors called me, "Cabbie"
So I took a vow, said this, "Bummo bee bo-borammo"
Now I′m smooth and snappy
Now my tailor's happy
I′m the cat's meow, my wardrobe is a wow
Paris silk, Harris tweed
There's only one thing I need
Got my tweed press, got my best vest
All I need now is the girl
Got my striped tie, got my hopes high
Got the time and the place, I got rhythm
Now all I need is the girl to go with ′em
If she′ll just appear
We'll take this big town for a whirl
And if she′ll say, "My darlin', I′m yours"
I'll throw away my striped tie
And my best dress tweed
All I really need is the girl
I start easy, you see?
And now I′m more debonair
Wake!
Da-ra, da-ra, da-ra
Da-ra, da-ra, da-ra-da
There's someone here
How can she resist?
And if she'll say, "My darlin′, I′m yours"
I'll throw away my striped tie
And my best dress tweed
All I really need
Is the girl!
Girl!
