lyrics

DAN`
THERE’S A GIRL THAT I SEE IN THE
KITCHEN
SHE’S A SCRUBBIN THE FLOOR WITH A
ZEST
I’D SAY I’VE HAD MY EYE ON THE BETTY'S
BUT ME THINKS THAT SHE IS THE BEST
I STAYED ON THIS SHIP FOR THE
FURLOUGHS
I SAVED UP MY PENNIES AT SEA
INSTEAD OF THE BOOZE AND THE NIGHTS
ON THE TOWN
I'D WRITE HER A POEM OR THREE
AND IN THEM MY RHYMES WERE SO CLEVER
THEY DANCED AND THEY TUGGED AT HER
HEART
THEY KEPT HER FROM THINKING OF OTHERS
WHILE
THE TWO OF US WERE MILES APART
DAN & CHORUS
HER EYES ARE AS BLUE AS THE OCEAN
HER SKIN IS THE COLOR OF PEARLS
SHE’S SWEET AND SHE’S KIND AND SO
SOON SHE’LL BE MINE
AND TO HECK WITH THE REST OF THE
GIRLS
SHIPMATE #1
SHE'S PROBABLY GONE OFF TO COLLEGE
SHIPMATE #2
OR MOVED OUT OF TOWN LONG AGO
SHIPMATE #3
SHE’S PROBABLY MARRIED A TOM DICK OR
HARRY
SHIPMATE #4
AND YOU’LL NEVER SEE HER NO MORE
DAN`
I HAVE MY DREAMS -AND IN THEM IT
SEEMS THAT SHE BEAMS WHILE SHE’S
EATING ICE CREAMS AND I TOSS AT NIGHT
BUT I DON’T LOOSE MY SIGHT FOR THE
(MORE)
26
DAN` (CONT'D)
THINGS THAT I THINK THAT ARE RIGHT
I’M A MAN WITH A PLAN
AND MY GOALS MAKE ME THAT THAT I AM
THERE’S A GIRL IN THIS WORLD
WHO’S THE RIGHT ONE I’M SURE THAT I
AM
DAN
WHEN I LEFT FOR THIS WAR SHE WAS
CRYING
AND PLEADING WITH ME TO RETURN
SO I STAYED ALIVE WITH MY WILL TO
SURVIVE
AND A WORLD FULL OF LESSONS I LEARNED
I TRAVELED THE SEAS TO HAWAII
AND ONWARD FROM THERE TO JAPAN
WHEN I LEFT MY TOWN I WAS JUST BARELY
GROWN
BUT I'M COMING HOME AS A MAN
DAN & CHORUS
HER EYES ARE AS BLUE AS THE OCEAN
HER SKIN IS THE COLOR OF PEARLS
SHE’S SWEET AND SHE’S KIND AND SO
SOON SHE’LL BE MINE
AND TO HECK WITH THE REST OF THE
GIRLS
DAN
SHE’S SWEET AND SHE’S KIND AND SO
SOON SHE’LL BE MINE
SO TO HECK WITH THE REST
FORGET THEY EXIST
THEY DON’T EVEN MATTER
NOT HARD TO RESIST
SHE ACED THE TEST
SO SHE IS THE BEST
I THINK THAT THIS GIRL
LIKE NO ONE IN THIS WORLD
IN THIS WORLD..
