- Honey dear, Want you near,
  Just turn out the light and then come over here;
  
- Nestle close, Up to my side,
  
- My heart's a fire, With
  love's desire.
  
- In my arms rest complete,
  I never thought that life could ever be so sweet
  
- 'Till I met you, some time
  ago,
  
- But now you know, I love
  you so.

- Chorus:
  
- Oh! you beautiful doll,
  You great big beautiful doll!
  
- Let me put my arms about
  you, I could never live without you.
  
- Oh! you beautiful doll,
  You great big beautiful doll!
  
- If you ever leave me, how
  my heart will ache, I want to hug you but I fear you'd break,
  
- Oh! oh! oh! oh! Oh! you
  beautiful doll!
