The Girl That I Marry (from "Annie Get Your Gun") Lyrics

The Girl That I Marry - Ray Middleton

Written by:Irving Berlin

 

The girl that I marry will have to be

As soft and as pink as a nursery

The girl I call my own

 

Will wear satin and laces and smell of cologne

 

Her nails will be polished

 

And in her hair she'll wear a gardenia

And I'll be there

Instead of flittin' I'll be sittin'

Next to her I'm cheerful like a kitten

 

A doll I can carry

The girl that I marry must be

 

The girl that I marry will have to be

As soft and as pink as a nursery

The girl I call my own

Will wear satin and laces and smell of cologne

Her nails will be polished

And in her hair she'll wear a gardenia

And I'll be there

Instead of flittin' I'll be sittin'

Next to her I'm cheerful like a kitten

 

A doll I can carry

 

The girl that I marry must be
