Filipino Baby (菲律宾宝贝) - Cowboy Copas
When the warships left Manila
Sailing proudly o'er the sea deap sea
All the sailors hearts were
Filled with fond regret
Looking backward to this island
Where they spent such happy hours
Happy hours
Making love to every pretty
Girl they've met
Well  up stopped a little sailor
With his pride eyes all aglow
All aglow
Saying take a look at my girl's photograph
Then the sailors gathered 'round
Him just to look upon her face
Upon her face
And he said  "I love my Filipino baby"
Filipino
She's my Filipino baby
She's my treasure and my pet
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
Yea i konw
And he set love my darling baby Filipino
Then one day he whispered
"Darling  I've come back
From Caroline   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
Gathered 'round and he
Wed his little darying baby Filipino
She's my Filipino baby
She's my treasure and my pet
Love my pet you 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
Yeas  I know girl konw
And he set love
My darling baby Filipino
