Lyrics Bell Bottom Trousers - Mitch Miller , The Gang

Once there was a little girl who lived next to me
And she loved this sailor boy, he was only three
Now he's on a battleship in his sailor suit
Just a great big sailor man, but he's just as cute

Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too

When they walk along the street, anyone can see
They are oh, so much in love, happy as can be
Hand-in-hand they stroll along, they don't give a hoot
He won't let go of her hand, even to salute

Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too

When her sailor boy's 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

Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too

Everywhere her sailor went, she was sure to go
Till one day he sailed away, where she doesn't know
Now she's gonna join the Waves, maybe go to sea
Try to find her sailor boy, wherever he may be

Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too

If her sailor she can't find on the bounding main
She is hopeful he will soon come home safe again
So they can get married and raise a family
Dress up all their kiddies in sailor's dungarees

Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too

Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue
She loves her sailor and he loves her too
Inst
Be kind to your web-footed friends
For a duck may be somebody's brother
Be kind to your friends who could walk
Where the weather is very, very damp
Now you may think that this is the end
Well it is
