I’m gonna buy a paper doll that I can call my own
G7 C6
a doll that other fellows cannot steal
C Cm
And then those flirty flirty guys
G B7 E7
with their flirty flirty eyes
D7 G7
will have to flirt with dollies that are real
G7 C
When I come home at night she will be waiting
G7 E7
she’ll be the truest doll in all this world
F F#dim C E7 A7
I’d rather have a paper doll to call my own
Dm7 G7 C
than have a fickle-minded real live girl
