I'm gonna buy a paper doll that I can call my own.
A doll that other fellas cannot steal
And then those flirty, flirty guys, with their flirty, flirty eyes
will have to flirt with dollies that are real.
When I come home at night she'll be waiting
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-life girl.
I tell you boy, it's tough to be alone,
and it's tough to love a doll that's not your own.
I'm through with all of them,
I'll never fall again,
'cos this is what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna buy a paper doll that I can call my own.
A doll that other fellas cannot steal
And then those flirty, flirty guys, with their flirty, flirty eyes
will have to flirt with dollies that are real.
When I come home at night she'll be waiting
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-life girl.
