Bell Bottom Trousers

(专辑： Entertains - 1959)

When I was a lady's maid down in drury lane
My mistress, she was good to me; my master, just the same
Along came a sailor, happy as could be
And he was the cause of all my misery

With his bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too

He asked me for a candle to light him up to bed
He asked me for a kerchief to tie around his head
And I, like a silly girl, thinking it no harm
Lay down beside him, just to keep him warm

With his bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too

Early in the morning, before the break of day
A sawbuck note he left for me before he went away
And he left a message, that if I have a son
Let him be a sailor, if he wants to have some fun

With his bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too

If it is a daughter, bounce her on your knee
And if it is a boy, send the bugger out to sea
Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
Oh, he'll climb the rigging, like the sailors used to do

If my sailor I can't find on the bounding main
I am hopeful he will soon come home safe again
So we can get married, and raise a family
Dress up all their kiddies in sailor's dungarees
