We've got sunlight on the sand
We've got moonlight on the sea
We've got mangos and bananas
You can pick right off a tree
We've got volleyball and ping pong
And a lot of dandy games
One thing we got, we ain't got dames!
We get packages from home
We get movies, we get shows
We get speeches from our skipper
And advice from Tokyo Rose
We get letters doused with perfume
We get dizzy from the smell
What don't we get? You know darn well
We have nothing to put on a clean white suit for
What we need is what there ain't no substitute for
There is nothing like a dame
Nothing in the world
There is nothing you can name
That is anything like a dame
We feel restless, we feel blue
We feel lonely and in grief
We feel every kind of feeling
But the feeling of relief
We feel hungry as the wolf felt
When he met Red Riding Hood
What don't we feel? We don't feel good
Lots of things in life are beautiful, but brother
There is one particular thing that is nothing like any other
There is nothing like a dame
Nothing in the world
There is nothing you can name
That is anything like a dame
Nothing else was built the same
Nothing in the world
Has a soft and wavy frame
Like the silhouette of a dame
So suppose that dame and bride
Are completely free from flaws
Or as faithful as a bird dog
Or as kind as Santa Claus
It's a waste of time to worry over things they may have not
A weird man will bore the things he's got
There is nothing you can name
That is anything like a dame
There are no books like a dame
And nothing looks like a dame
There are no drinks like a dame
And nothing thinks like a dame
Nothing acts like a dame
Or attracts like a dame
There ain't a thing that's wrong with any man here
That can't be cured by pulling him near
A girly, womanly, female, feminine dame
