I Want The Waiter

Ella Fitzgerald · Radio Years 1940 [1999]

I want the waiter with the water

I want the waiter with the water for my daughter

I want the waiter with the water for my daughter

'Cause my daughter has an order for some water on the tray



He's got a menu that he'll send you

He's got a menu that he'll send you and befriend you

He's got a menu that he'll send you and befriend you

Maybe lend you if you help me find the waiter with the tray



While my daughter was having lunch one day

She caught the waiter's eye

He took one look at her, then ran away

Now she's gonna die of thirst unless I find that guy



I want the waiter with the water

I want the waiter with the water for my daughter

Don't want the butcher or the baker or the candle stick maker

Want the waiter with the water on the tray



She wants the waiter with the water

She wants the waiter with the water for her daughter

Don't want the butcher or the baker or the candle stick maker

Want the waiter with the water on the tray
