I Wish I Had a Girl lyrics – Music by Grace Kahn, lyrics by Gus Kahn. Performed by Doris Day, Danny Thomas in I’ll See You In My Dreams
Gee, I wish that I had a girl like the other fellas have
Someone to make a fuss over me
To cheer me up when I feel sad
On Wednesday night I’m all alone
When I oughtta be up at some sweetheart’s home
And I’m lonesome, awfully lonesome
Gee, I wish I had a girl
These days every fellow has a sweetheart
Seems like every girlie has a beau
No matter how I strive
Folks don’t know that I’m alive
And I fear I’m gonna die of lonesomeness
Gee, I wish that I had a girl like the other fellas have
Someone to make a fuss over me
To cheer me up when I feel sad
On Wednesday night I’m all alone
When I oughtta be up at some sweetheart’s home
And I’m lonesome, awfully lonesome
Gee, I wish I had a girl
