once there was a little girl who lived next to me
and she loved the 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 boys 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 bounting main
she is hopeful he will soon come home safe again
so they can get married and raise a family
place up all the kitties in sailor's dungarees
oh bell bottom trousers coat of navy blue
she loves her sailor and he loves her too
