Sippin' soda

(
She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt) (
She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt)
She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea
A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes
And love in her heart for me
I work in a
London bank, respectable position
From nine to three they serve you tea
But ruin your disposition
Each night of music calls, rather lost
I seem
And once a pearl of a native girl came smilin' right at me
She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea
A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes
And love in her heart for me
Goodbye to the
London bank,
I started in a-sailin'
The fourteenth day from
Mandalay
I spied her from the railin'
She knew
I was on my way, waited, and was true
She said "
You son of an
Englishman,
I've dreamed each night of you"
She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea
A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes
And love in her heart for me
I went to her
Ma and
Pa and said
I loved her only
And they both said we could be wed, oh, what a ceremony
An elephant brought her in, placed her by my side
While six baboons got out bassoons and played "
Here
Comes the
Bride"
I'm back here in
London town and, though it may sound silly
She's here with me and you should see us walk down
Piccadilly
The boys at the
London bank kinda hold their breath
She sits with me and sips her tea which tickles them to death
She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt
She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea
A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes
And love (and love) in her heart (in her heart) for me
