You’re a lovely little girl that’s what you are
I’d like to take you ridin in my car
We’d go up hills, we’d go down
We’d drive all over town
It’d be so nice to show you all around
You’re a lovely little girl, and that’s the truth
Lovelier than the daughter of john wilkes booth
And though I haven’t had the pleasure of meeting john booth’s little treasure
I’m sure that you are lovelier than her
It’s true, you’re a lovely little girl
Probably the sweetest in the world
Soon you’ll have tiny curls
You’re a diamond, you’re a pearl
They’ll bow to you, princes, dukes and earls
You’re a lovely girl I know of what I speak
The lovely faucet must’ve sprung a leak
It gushed forth on the morn
That lovely you were born
The stork that brought you was spillin loveliness from its beak
Whistle
You’re a lovely little girl that’s what you is
Loveliness happens to be your biz
On your office door it says
Lovely is as lovely does
And Lovely is the answer to this quiz
You’re a lovely little girl that’s what you is
(lyrics: Dan Bern)
