She’s a lovely girl but she won’t stand still
She won’t stand any diyldumadiidlyum
That’s the girl I love
What a girl to love!
Now her life begins on a Friday night
Her hair in curls and her face all plastered.
That’s the girl I love
What a girl to love!
Ah didleumdum dah
DeDidilyumdah didleumdum dah
DeDidilyumdumdah
That’s the girl I love.
What a girl to love.
Oh She’s got a red dress and a blue
When she whirls around
She shows her garters! Wooh!
That’s the girl I love
What a girl to love
Now she’s not the girl for holding hands
But you’d get a squeeze if you’re her partner
Would you like to dance?
Ah get up and dance! Ah yah!
Diddleumdumdah
Dediddleumdah De diddle umdumdah
That’s the girl I love
What a girl to love
Now if you dropped a half a crown on the ground
She wouldn’t bend down she’d dance around it
That’s the girl I love
What a girl to love
She moves around like a wheel on a wave
She can’t stand still like a willy wags tail
That’s the girl I love
What a girl to love!
She’s a lovely girl but she won’t stand still
She won’t stand any diyldumadiidlyum
That’s the girl I love
What a girl to love!
