歌曲歌詞
When the warships 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 met
Well 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 baby"
She'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 Jimmy
In a little rustic cottage in the port of Philippines
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 alone
Then 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 baby
She'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
