Filipino Baby (feat. George Jones)

When the warship's left Manila sailing proudly o'er the sea

All the sailors hearts were filled with fond regret

Looking backward to this island where they spent such happy hours

Making love to every pretty girl they've metWell up stopped a little sailor with his pride 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 babyShe'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

She's my darling little Filipino baby oh JimmyIn a little rustic cottage in the port of Filipines

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 aloneThen 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 babyShe'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

She's my darling little Filipino baby
