We got sunlight on the sand, We got moonlight on the the sea We got mangoes and bananas You can pick right off a tree We got volleyball and ping pong And a lot of dandy games! What ain't 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 got nothin' to put on a clean white suit for We got nothin' to look masculine and cute for! CHORUS There is nothin' like a dame! Nothin' in the world! There is nothin' you can name That is anything like a dame! We feel lonely and we long For the fair and gentle sex, We would like to feel the feeling Of some arms around our necks. 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 nothin' whatsoever in any way, shape or form like any other. CHORUS
