Daddy Was A Sailor |
Daddy was a sailor, join the Navy, see the world |
Daddy was a sailor, boy, he liked the pretty girls |
Taught me how to dance, taught me that jitter bug groove |
Taught me how to make romance, my daddy taught me how to move |
Daddy was a lover, he traveled all around the world |
Daddy was a lover, be he loved the pretty girls |
Taught me how to cuss, some folks didn’t approve |
Taught me how to fight and fuss, my daddy taught mehow to move |
Daddy wasn’t always at home that much |
But somehow he managed to keep in touch |
Well, he sent me a hula girl post card from Hawaii, he did |
And that was just enough for that six year kid |
Well, I never joined the navy but you know I’ve been around the world |
‘Cause something that he gave me pleases all the little girls |
Move a little closer, baby, please, say yes, no, don’t say maybe |
The time is right and it feels good tonight |
I really think we’re gonna move |
I really think we’re gonna move |
I really think we’re gonna move |
I really think we’re gonna move |
