When the warships left Manila sailing proudly o'er the sea, deep blue sea All the sailors hearts were filled with fond regret Looking backward to this island where they spent such happy hours Making love to every pretty girl they've met Well, up stepped a little sailor with his pride eyes all aglow, all aglow Saying take a look at my girl's photograph Then the sailors gathered 'round him just to look upon her face, upon her face And he said, "I love my dark face Filipino " She's my Filipino baby, she's my treasure and my pet, loving pet Her teeth are bright and pearly and her hair is black as jet Oh, her lips are sweet as honey and her heart is pure I know Yes I know, and he said I love my dark face Filipino Then one day he whispered, "Darling, I've come back From Caroline, South Carolina, I've come back to claim the only girl I love" And that night there was a wedding while the ships crew Gathered 'round, all around, and he wed his little dark face Filipino She's my Filipino baby, she's my treasure and my pet, loving pet you'd bet Her teeth are bright and pearly and her hair is black as jet Oh, her lips are sweet as honey and her heart is pure I know Yes I know, pure as snow, and he said I love my dark face Filipino
