(She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt)  (She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt)    She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea  A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes  And love in her heart for me     I work in a London bank, respectable position  From nine to three they serve you tea  But ruin your disposition  Each night of music calls, rather lost I seem  And once a pearl of a native girl came smilin' right at me     She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt  She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt  She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea  A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes  And love in her heart for me     Goodbye to the London bank, I started in a-sailin'  The fourteenth day from Mandalay I spied her from the railin'  She knew I was on my way, waited, and was true  She said "You son of an Englishman, I've dreamed each night of you"     She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt  She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt  She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea  A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes  And love in her heart for me     I went to her Ma and Pa and said I loved her only  And they both said we could be wed, oh, what a ceremony  An elephant brought her in, placed her by my side  While six baboons got out bassoons and played "Here Comes the Bride"     I'm back here in London town and, though it may sound silly  She's here with me and you should see us walk down Piccadilly  The boys at the London bank kinda hold their breath  She sits with me and sips her tea which tickles them to death     She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt  She wears red feathers and a hooly-hooly skirt  She lives on just cokey-nuts and fish from the sea  A rose in her hair, a gleam in her eyes  And love (and love) in her heart (in her heart) for me
