Filipino Baby

歌詞

When the warship left Manila sailing proudly o'er the sea Many sailors hearts were filled with sad regret Looking backward to this Island where they spent such happy hours Making love to every pretty gal they've met Well up stopped a little sailor with his bright eyes all aglow Saying take a look my gal's photograph Then the sailors gathered round him just to look upon her face And he said I love my Filipino baby She's my Filipino baby she's my treasure and my pet Her teeth are bright and pearly and her hair is black as jet Her lips are sweet as honey and her heart is true I know And I love my little Filipino baby In a little rustic cottage in the Port of Fillippines Dwells a pretty little maiden all alone And she's thinking of her true love though he's far off cross the sea And her heart beats true for him and him alone Then one day he whispered darling I've come back from Caroline I've come back to claim the only girl I love And that night there was a wedding while the ships crew gathered round And he wed his little Filipino baby She's my Filipino baby...
