Lyrics:
A handsome hunk o’ fella with the sharpest clothes
A sunny disposition and a smile that glows
That’s the kind of guy I dream of
You should see the kind that I get
He never runs around with any gal but me
He doesn’t give a hoot about variety
That’s the kind of guy I dream of
You should see the kind that I get
If they’re not “these, them, and those-ers”
They’re financially in the red
They’re broad shouldered brutes
But in their bathing suits
God! I should have stayed in bed
A trip to Catalina on a moon lit deck
He wines me and he dines me and he pays the check
That’s the kind of guy I dream of
You should see the kind that I get
A man who comes a-courtin’ in a limousine
Who doesn’t want me chippin’ in for gasoline
That’s the kind of guy I dream of
You should see the kind that I get
He shows up on the minute when we have a date
Of course I’m never ready but he loves to wait
That’s the kind of guy I dream of
You should see the kind that I get
Got a guy, says he’s a jockey
Took me to see his thoroughbred
You guessed it, of course
He looks just like his horse
God! I should have stayed in bed
He tells me he is faithful
Never fools around
So naturally I trust him when he’s out of town
That’s the kind of guy I dream of
You should see the goons, the dopes, the squares
The guys, the guys that I get
