"I Want A Little Girl" lyrics - COUNT BASIE

I want a little girl, call my own
She must be someone who's all alone now
Say, I want a little girl
To fall in love with me, oh yeah

I want a little girl, but she may not look
Just like a picture in a story book
If she can cook chicken, yeah
She'll suit me to a "t"

And she don't have to wave her hair
Or even wear fancy clothes
I wouldn't even care
She don't wear nylon hose, oh no

I want a little girl
To love a lot
You know that I'd give
Her everything I got
I want a little girl
To fall in love with me
