Lyrics

Got my tweed pressed, got my best vest, all I need now is the girl

Prepared clothing-wise, longing for a romantic partner

Got my striped tie, got my hopes high

Optimistic and enthusiastic with aspirations

Got the time and the place and I got the rhythm,

Ready with the setting and music

Now all I need's the girl to go with 'em

Desire for a companion to accompany the preparedness


If she'll just appear we'll take this big town for a whirl

Anticipation for experiencing the city with a partner

And if she'll say "My, darling, I'm yours"

Hopes for reciprocated affection and commitment

I'll throw away my striped tie and my best-pressed tweed

Willingness to let go of attire for love

All I really need is the girl

Stating the essential importance of a romantic partner


Got my tweed pressed, I got my best vest, all I need now is the girl

Reiteration of preparedness and desire for companionship

Got my striped tie, got my hopes `way up high

Increased hopefulness for a romantic connection

I got the time and the place and the rhythm

Confirmation of readiness in every aspect

All I need's the girl to go with 'em

Reiterating the need for a partner to join in


Mm, if she'll just appear we'll take this, this great big town for a whirl

Excitement about exploring the city together

And if, if she'll say "My, darlin', I'm yours"

Desire for an affirmation of love and commitment

I'll throw away my striped tie and my best-pressed tweed

Willingness to sacrifice attire for love, echoing earlier sentiment

All I real, really need is the girl

Emphasis on the fundamental necessity of a romantic partner


All I need is the girl

Summarizing the core longing for companionship
