Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna buy a paper doll that I can call my own
A doll that other fellas cannot steal
And then the flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes
Will have to flirt with dollies that are real
[Verse 2]
When I come home at night she will be waitin'
She'll be the truest doll in all this world
I'd rather have a paper doll to call my own
Than have a fickle-minded real live girl
[Verse 3]
I'd rather have a paper doll to call my own
Than have a fickle-minded real live girl
