VERSE 1: I'm looking for somebody kind/ I'm looking for somebody who can harmonize with my heart/ for a start/ with a certain four-stringed instrument/ I'm looking for somebody sweet/ I'm looking for somebody who can feel the beat/ when we play/ everyday/ on a certain four-stringed instrument/ you know I'm looking for

CHORUS: my dear ukulele boy/ dear ukulele boy/ my dear ukulele boy/ won't somebody tell me where he'll be found.

VERSE 2: I'm looking for somebody dear/ I'm looking for somebody who can hear/ what I say/ when I play/ on a certain four-stringed instrument./ I'm looking for somebody strong/ I'm looking for somebody who will sing along/ when we play/ everyday/ on a certain four-stringed instrument/ you know I'm looking for

BRIDGE: I've spent my days looking/ and my nights dreaming/ and still that boy just won't be found (by me or anyone else)/ but I'll spend my life searching/ and avoid all the hurting/ that comes from just laying around (saying he'll never be found, never be found)/ so I'm still looking for
