Filipino Baby Sözleri

When the warship left Manila headin' out across the sea

All the sailors hearts were filled with fond regret

Looking backward to the islands where they spent such happy hours

Making love to every pretty girl they've met

(When up stepped a little sailor with his bright 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 treasure 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

And she's my darling little Filipino baby

[ steel ]

In a little rustic cottage in the far off Phillipines 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

And she's my little Filipino baby...
