lyrics

I wanna get a girl who's got real high standards
A firecracker who won't take no for an answer
A singer, a painter, maybe a dancer
Who's real good at playing the cards life hands her
But for now, I want you.
I want you, I want you, I want you.

I wanna get a girl who can juggle and whistle
Who's burned out of rose thorns and cuts just like thistle
Who'll bring me my lessons in bruises by the fistful
Who won't chew the fat by tearing out the gristle
But for now, I want you.
I want you, I want you, I want you.

I wanna get a girl who won't keep me busy
By runnin in circles and making me dizzy
Just a sweet little thing, who's real soft and kissy
Someone who'll wait around, someone who will miss me.
But for now, I want you.
I want you, I want you, I want you.

Someday I'll live in a place that's got real nice scenerey
Settle down, raise a family, and give my life meaning
Share feelings in a way that ain't self-defeating
And make love in a way that ain't real demeaning.
But for now, I want you.
I want you, I want you, I want you.
