Lyrics
Chorus
I want a doll, I want a baby doll
To play with me, to play with me
Just like the dollies they have in the Follies
That roll their eyes, and show surprise
And that isn’t all
I want a doll, I want a baby doll
Won’t some doll hear my call?
Some coy, sweet toy that wants the love
That’s due her, oh, boy, oh joy
Won’t someone lead me to her?
One not too green, you know what I mean
I want a great big beautiful doll
Chorus
I want a doll, I want a baby doll
To play with me, to play with me
I could admire some baby vampire
Who’d wink her lamp and be my vamp
And that isn’t all
I want a doll, I want a baby doll
Some doll to make me fall?
Some coy, sweet toy
That has a lovely figure, oh, boy, oh joy
I’m full of wim and wigor
One not too bold and still not too cold
I want a great big beautiful doll
