Filipino Baby |
When the warship’s left Manila sailing proudly o’er the sea |
All the sailors hearts were filled with fond regret |
Looking backward to this Island where they spent such happy hours |
Making love to every pretty girl they’ve met |
(Well up stopped a little sailor with his pride eyes all aglow |
Saying take a look at my girl’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 trasure and my pet |
Her teeth are bright and pearly and her hair is black as jet |
Oh her lips are sweet as honey and her heart is true I know |
She’s my darling my little Filipino baby |
In a little rustic cottage in the port of Filipines dwells a lonely little |
maiden all alone |
(She is thinking of her true love though he’s far across 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 she’s my trasure and my pet |
Her teeth are bright and pearly and her hair is black as jet |
Oh her lips are sweet as honey and her heart is true I know |
She’s my darling my little Filipino baby |
