WHEN THE
WARSHIPS
LEFT MANILA
SAILING PROUDLY
O'ER THE SEA
DEEP BLUE SEA
ALL THE SAILORS'
HEARTS WERE FILLED
WITH FOND REGRET
LOOKING
BACKWARD
TO THIS ISLAND
WHERE THEY'D SPENT
THOSE HAPPY HOURS
HAPPY HOURS
MAKING LOVE TO EVERY
PRETTY GIRL THEY MET
WHEN UP STEPPED
A LITTLE SAILOR
WITH HIS BRIGHT
EYES ALL AGLOW
ALL AGLOW
SAYIN' TAKE A LOOK
AT MY GAL'S
PHOTOGRAPH
THEN THE SAILORS
GATHERED
ROUND HIM
JUST TO LOOK
UPON HER FACE
SMILIN' FACE
AND HE SAID I LOVE
MY DARK FACED
FILIPINO
SHE'S MY
FILIPINO BABY
SHE'S MY
TREASURE
AND MY PET
LOVIN' 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
PURE I KNOW
YES I KNOW
AND HE
SAID I LOVE MY
DARK FACED
FILIPINO
16 BAR
INSTRUMENTAL
BREAK
THEN ONE DAY HE
WHISPERED DARLIN'
I'VE COME BACK
FROM CAROLINE
SOUTH CAROLINE
I'VE COME BACK
TO CLAIM THE
ONLY GIRL I LOVE
AND THAT
NIGHT THERE
WAS A WEDDING
WHILE THE SHIP'S
CREW GATHERED
'ROUND
ALL AROUND
AND HE WED
HIS LITTLE
DARK FACED
FILIPINO
SHE'S MY
FILIPINO BABY
SHE'S MY TREASURE
AND MY PET
LOVIN' PET YOU BET
HER TEETH
ARE BRIGHT
AND PEARLY
AND HER HAIR
IS BLACK AS JET
OH HER LIPS
ARE SWEET
AS HONEY
AND HER HEART IS
PURE I KNOW
YES I KNOW
PURE
AS SNOW
AND HE SAID
I LOVE MY
DARK FACED
FILIPINO
