Bell Bottom Trousers

Once there was a little girl who lived next to me

And she loved a sailor boy, he was only three

Now he's on a battleship in his sailor suit

Just a great big sailor but she thinks he's very cute

(With his bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue

She loves her sailor and he loves her too)

When her sailor boy's away on the ocean blue

Soldier boys all flirt with her but to him she's true

Though they smile and tip their caps and they wink their eyes

She just smiles and shakes her head, then she softly sighs

(Oh, bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue

She loves her sailor and he loves her too)

When her sailor went to sea to see what he could see

She saw that he ate spinach, now he's big as he can be

When he's home they stroll along, they don't give a hoot

She won't let go of his hand, even to salute

If her sailor she can't find on the bounding main

She is hopeful he will soon come home safe again

So they can get married and raise a family

Dress up all their kiddies in sailor's dungarees

(Oh, bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue

She loves her sailor and he loves her too)
