Once my clothes were shabby

Tailors called me cabbies

So I took a vow

Said this bang bowl

Be beau Brummel

Now I'm smooth and snappy

Now my tailor's happy

I'm the cats meow

How wardrobe is a wow

Paris silk harries tweed

There's only one thing I need

Got my tweed crest

Got my best vest

All I need now is the girl

Got my striped tie

Got my hopes high

Got the time and the place

And I got rhythm

All I need is the girl to go with

If she'll just appear

We'll take this big town for a whirl

And if she'll say my darling I'm yours

I'll throw away

My striped tie

And my best-pressed tweed

All I really need is the girl

Got my tweed crest

Got my best vest

All I need now is the girl

Got a sports car

Lowly jaguar wow like wow

I got the time and the place

All that I need is her face

If she will just appear

We'll take this big town for a whirl

And if she'll say

My darling our love is here to stay

And I am prepared to throw away

My blue striped tie

I'll lose my best Paris silk

I'll burn the parry so

All I need is the girl
