gotta find myself a girl to hug and hold
cuddle by the fire when the air is cold
keep me company when i feel gray
a friendly girl with who I can play
she must be good
she must be bad
she must be sweet and sometimes sad
she must not mind talking about death
she must not mind my stinking breath
oh yeah
gotta find myself a girl
oh yeah
lord please help me
find myself a girl
oh yeah
gotta find myself a girl who acts like a man
a girl who wants to hold my hand
a girl who knows what to say
when i tell her to go away
a girl who loves fish and eggs
a girl who never shaves her legs
girl that smiles and sometimes frowns
a girl that’ll tear me apartment down
girl that likes to have a good time
a girl involved in organized crime
oh yeah
gotta find myself a girl
oh yeah
lord please help me
find myself a girl
oh yeah
i’m looking in new mexico and new orleans
chicago, philadelphia, brooklyn and queens
looking in new jersey, green bay
i’m looking all over the entire usa
i’m searching for a girl
i don’t care what size
i don’t give a damn about the colour of her eyes
her skin can be black, her skin can be white
she only has to love me and hold me tight
and dance with me and play me in the snow
and go with me to the local disco
fly me back in the crack of blue
shimmy shimmy shama go bamu!
a girl that’s kinda wild and never a bore
that’s the kind of girl I’m looking for
oh yeah
i’m looking for a girl
oh yeah
lord please help me
find myself a girl
oh yeah
searching, i’m searching
and all around the world
i’m searching, i’m looking for that one and only special girl
i’m lookin’, i’m lookin’
all across the lonely world
i’m searching, i’m searching
my one and only special girl
