When the warships left Manila
G
G

Sailin' proudly o 'er the sea,
D
D

deep blue sea
All the sailors' hearts were
E
E

filled with sad regret
A
A

D
D

Lookin' backwards to this island
G
G

Where they'd spent such happy hours,
D
D

happy hours
A
A

Making love to every
D
D

pretty girl they met
Went up, stepped the little sailor
G
G

with his bright eyes
D
D

All aglow, all aglow
E
E

Saying, take a look at my gal's photograph
A
A

D
D

And the sailors gathered
round him just to look
G
G

D
D

Up on her face, smilin' face
A
A

D
D

And he said, I love my Filipino baby
Well, she's my Filipino baby
G
G

She's my darlin',
D
D

she's my pet, lovin' pet
Her teeth are bright and pearly
E
E

A
A

And her hair is black as jet
D
D

Oh, her lips are sweet as honey
G
G

D
D

And her heart is pure, I know, yes, I know
A
A

And I love my little Filipino baby

In a little rusty cottage in
G
G

the far -off
Philippines, Philippines
D
D

Dwells a pretty little
E
E

A
A

maiden all alone
D
D

And she's thinking of her true love
G
G

Though he's far across the sea,
D
D

deep blue sea
A
A

And her heart beats true for
D
D

him and him alone
Then one day he whispered, Darling,
G
G

D
D

I've come back from Caroline, North Caroline
I've come back to claim
E
E

A
A

the only girl I love
D
D

And that night there was a wedding
G
G

while the ship crew gathered around,
D
D

all around
A
A

D
D

And he wed his little Filipino baby
Girl, she's my Filipino baby,
G
G

she's my darlin',
D
D

she's my pet, lovin' pet
Her teeth are bright and pearly
E
E

A
A

and her hair is black as jelly
D
D

Oh, her lips are sweet as honey
G
G

D
D

and her heart is pure, I know, yes, I know
A

And I love my little Filipino baby
