Subject: Lyr Add: I WANT A GIRL (JUST LIKE THE GIRL THAT...
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 loved nobody else but you; oh,
I want a girl just like the girl that married dear old Dad.

Or the college version:

I want a beer just like the beer that staggered dear old Dad.
It was a beer, and the only beer that Daddy ever had.
A good old-fashioned brew with lots of foam,
It took six men to carry Daddy home, oh,
I want a beer...(etc.)
