When The Warship's Left Manila
Sailing Proudly O'er The Sea Deep Blue Sea
All Th' Sailors Hearts Were Filled With Sad Regret
Looking Backward To The Island
Where They Spent Such Happy Hours Happy Hours
Making Love To Every Pretty Girl They Met

Well Up Stepped A Little Sailor
With His Bright Eyes All Aglow All Aglow
Saying Take A look At My Girl's Photograph
Then The Sailors Gathered Around Him
Just To Look Upon Her Face Smiling Face
And He said I Love My Dark Faced Filipino

She's My Filipino Baby
She's My Treasure
And My Pet Loving Pet
Her Teeth Are Bright And Pearly
And Her Hair As Black As Jet
Oh Her Lips Are Sweet As Honey
And Her Heart Is True I Know Yes I Know
An' I Love My Little Dark Faced Filipino

In A Little Rustic Cottage
In The Port Of Philippines Philippines
Dwells A Pretty Little Maiden All Alone
And She's Thinking Of Her True Love
Though He's Far Across The Sea Deep Blue Sea
And Her Heart Beats True For Him And Him Alone

Then One Day He Whispered Darling
I've Come Back From Caroline, South Caroline
I've Come Back To Claim The Only Girl I Love
An' That Night There Was A Wedding
While The Ships 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 Loving Pet
Her Teeth Are Bright And Pearly
And Her Hair As Black As Jet
Oh Her Lips Are Sweet As Honey
And Her Heart Is True I Know Yes I Know
An' I Love My Little Dark Faced Filipino
