I've got an island in the Pacific, |
|
And everything about it is terrific; |
|
I've got the sun to tan me, |
|
Palms to fan me, |
|
And - an occasional man! |
|
I've got an island, it's very lazy, |
|
If I should ever leave it I'd be crazy! |
|
I've got papayas, peaches, |
|
Sandy beaches, |
|
And - an occasional man! |
|
When I go swimmin', |
|
I am always dressed in style, |
|
'Cause I go swimmin' |
|
Wearin' just a great big smile! |
|
My little island was made for pleasure, |
|
And in the cool of evening it's a treasure; |
|
And when the hour grows later, |
|
What is greater |
|
Than - an occasional man! |
|
If you're on shore leave |
|
And your face is kinda cute, |
|
Perhaps, by your leave, |
|
I can be you passion fruit! |
|
My little island is such a beauty. |
|
You may gorget to heed the call of duty; |
|
But if you give the slip |
|
To your ship, |
|
Miss your trip, |
|
Take a tip |
|
And blame - |
|
An occasional dame! |
