For Every Boy Who's on the Level
(There's a Girl Who's on the Square)

I was a pal to my daddy, and dad was a pal to me.
This is the story he told me one day,
And it lingers through my memory

Refrain

For every boy who's on the level,
There's a girl who's just the same.
When you gamble with a heart
Remember from the start,
it always pays to play an honest game.

Every one was meant for someone,
And they'll meet that someone sometime, somewhere.

For every boy who's on the level,
There's a girl who's on the square.
For ev'ry square.

Each one was meant to be happy
To have and to hold and to love
Follow the straight road and keep to the right
And abide in our maker above.
