If her voice is a song, and her walk is a dance,

And if her laugh is warm and free,

If I suddenly seem to be seeing a dream,

She's the right girl for me.

If the glow in her eyes and the light in her smile

Could charm a bird right off a tree,

I'd be charmed as a bird and I'll know in a word,

She's the right girl for me.

She'll have a simple sweet appeal,

That wins my affection.

She'll be the kind who'll make me feel

She needs my protection.

If the sight of her face and the touch of her hand

Can make me happy as can be,

If my heart says "Come in,

Darling, where have you been?"

She's the right girl for me.

<musical interlude>

If the sight of her face and the touch of her hand

Can make me happy as can be,

If my heart says "Come in,

Darling, where have you been?"

She's the right girl for me,

She's the right girl for me.
