| Calvin Girl - Glenn Bulthuis |
 |
Showing once again that Dutch Christian
Reformed Church-goers do know how to have a
good time with their ladies, Glenn Bultuis
and the Tonedeafs sing a beautiful ballad to
the lovely ladies of Calvin College in Grand
Rapids, Michigan - go Knights! An
explanation of obscure cultural references to
follow...
I wanna woman who can love me for life!
I wanna woman who can be a good wife!
I wanna woman who can sing in a choir!
I wanna woman who can change a tire!
I wanna woman - she's gotta be cute -
She's gotta know her Calvin's Institutes!
I wanna woman who can go out in the skid!
I wanna woman wants to have twelve kids!
I wanna woman ain't got no rheumatism!
I wanna woman who knows her catechism!
I wanna woman who can give me what I want-a
I wanna woman who can serve me fried iguana!
I want a Calvin girl! I want a Calvin girl!
I want a Calvin girl! I want a Calvin girl!
Been around the world - I want a Calvin girl!
I wanna woman with her head on straight!
I wanna woman I can take on a date!
I wanna woman who knows right and wrong -
I wanna woman who can mow my lawn!
I wanna woman who can sing in a chorus!
I wanna woman who can serve me brontosaurus!
I want a Calvin girl! I want a Calvin girl!
I want a Calvin girl! I want a Calvin girl!
Been around the world - I want a Calvin girl!
Yeah, yeah,
She's gotta be straight, she's gotta be a
sport,
I don't want any women from Dordt.
She's gotta be straight, I don't want no dope
-
So don't gimme any women from Hope! Ah no,
no, 1, 2, 3,
I wanna woman gimme mental stimulation!
She must approach a thing with serious
dedication!
She's gotta know it's more than just
infatuation!
She's gotta know some Biblical
interpretation!
If this sounds good to you, it's my
recommendation
to come on, baby, and fill out an
application!
I want a Calvin girl! I want a Calvin girl!
I want a Calvin girl! I want a Calvin girl!
Been around the world - I want a Calvin girl!
I want everybody here
To lend an ear!
'Cause I've been preachin' this word
For twenty-five years!
If you're lookin' for love all around the
world,
If you want a good wife, get a Calvin girl!
I got a Calvin girl! I got a Calvin girl!
I got a Calvin girl! I got a Calvin girl!
Been around the world - I want a Calvin girl!
Yeah, yeah!
I want a Calvin girl! I want a Calvin girl!
Been around the world - I want a - I want a -
I want a Calvin girl!
I want a Calvin girl...I want a Calvin girl,
I want a Calvin girl. I want a
Calvin...girl!
--
All genuine Michigan ladies mow their lawns -
not the men.
Dordt and Hope are two Reformed Christian
colleges in the same western Michigan area as
Calvin College, and Calvin and Hope have
always been huge rivals.
Note the nod to the Beatles' "I Want to Hold
Your Hand" at the end, there.
This song belongs entirely to Glenn Bulthuis
and the Tonedeafs. Tags : "Calvin College" "calvin girls" "John Calvin" Michigan "western Michigan" Calvinism "Dordt college" "Hope college" Christianity "Jesus Christ" romance "love song" music |
