The Sailor With The Navy Blue Eyes (1942)

Who’s got girls in every port
Hanging around like flies
Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
The sailor with the navy blue eyes

Who’s the guy they love to buy
Dozens of socks and ties
Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
The sailor with the navy blue eyes

When the boat comes home after crossing the foam
He’s still at sea
Thinking, wond’ring who’s he gonna take a-rowing on the lake

Who’s the boy who’s full of joy
Waving the most goodbyes
Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
The sailor with the navy blue eyes.

(Orchestral Interlude)

When the boat comes home after crossing the foam
And he’s still at sea
He’ll start a-wond’ring, worrying, all of a flurrying
Who’s he gonna take rowing on the lake

Now who’s the boy who’s full of joy
Waving the most goodbyes
Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho
The sailor with the navy blue eyes
