I've got an island in the Pacific
And everything about it is terrific
I've got the sun to tan me
Palms to fan me
And - an occasional man!
I've got an island, it's very lazy
If I should ever leave it I'd be crazy!
I've got papayas, peaches
Sandy beaches
And - an occasional man!
When I go swimmin'
I am always dressed in style
'Cause I go swimmin'
Wearin' just a great big smile!
My little island was made for pleasure
And in the cool of evening it's a treasure
And when the hour grows later
What is greater
Than - an occasional man!
If you're on shore leave
And your face is kinda cute
Perhaps, by your leave
I can be you passion fruit!
My little island is such a beauty
You may gorget to heed the call of duty
But if you give the slip
To your ship
Miss your trip
Take a tip
And blame -
An occasional dame!
