Songtexte There's A Fella Waitin' In Poughkeepsie - Bing Crosby , The Andrews Sisters

There's a feller waitin' in Poughkeepsie
And he's just as sweet as sweet can be
He hasn't even been tipsy
Since I left him and took to the sea
There's another waitin' in Pomona
With the cutest dimple in his chin
And there's a guy in Daytona
Who just waits for my ship to come in
I miss 'em, honour bright
I write 'em every night
But if you held my hand
I suppose they would all understand
Oh, you mustn't think I'm just a gypsy
But I really ought to set you right
There's a feller waitin' in Poughkeepsie
But I'm strictly on my own tonight
There's a WAVE who's waitin' in Biloxi
Says she's gonna marry me or bust
We're bein' married by proxy
When I find me a wolf I can trust
There's a spar who's waiting in Waukegan
Who is really different from the rest
I think her last name is Reagan
That's the name that's tattooed on my chest
A WAC in Hackensack
A WAC from Pontiac
I got 'em here and there
What the heck, chicks are chicks anywhere
Some of them are kinda bobby-soxsy
But it might be quite a lengthy fight
There's a wave who's waitin in Biloxi
But I'm strictly on my own tonight.
There's a sweetheart in Poughkeepsie
Just as sweet as sweet can be, you see
He hasn't even been tipsy
Since I left him and took to the sea
Oh, you mustn't think we're gypsies
But we really ought to set you right
Well tell it tonight
There's a feller and a girl waitin' in Poughkeepsie
But I'm strictly on my own,
Yes I'm strictly on my own
Oh we're strictly on our own tonight.
