I love my long shore-man, I do, mama;
I love that long shore-man, I do, ha ha!.....
We’re gonna get married, we are, mama
And we’ll have eleckatricity and all,…..
We’ll have eleckatricity and all……..
He held my hand, he did, mama;
He held my hand, he did, haha,
We’re gonna have children around our door,
And have eleckatricity and all.
We walked on the seashore, we did, mamma,
We walked on the seashore, we did, ha ha,
He whispered and told me the way it would be
To have eleckatricity and all.
He combed my hair, he did, mamma,
He combed my hair, he did, ha ha,
He said it would wave when we get settled down,
And have eleckatricity and all.
He hugged me tight, he did, mamma,
He hugged me tight, he did, ha ha,
He said he would hug me morning and night,
When we have eleckatricity and all.
He kissed my lips, he did, mamma,
He kissed my lips, he did, ha ha,
He said he’d kiss me a million times
When we get eleckatricity and all.
I’m going to tell papa, I am, mamma,
I’m going to tell papa, I am, ha ha,
He might not like it but I don’t care
‘Cause we’ll have eleckatricity and all.
