Sanoja: Perry Como. They Love Me.

Oh! What a trip!
What a wonderful trip!
And to think that I was worried
at the start of the trip!
I must confess that I was filled with doubt
but there was really nothing to worry about!

They love me, they love me!
I'm welcome everywhere with open arms!
They love me, they love me!
I never knew I had so many charms!

In Pakistan they took be sailing on a lovely lake
In India they let be see a mongoose kill a snake
because they love me, they love me
an' they want me to come back again!

They love me, they love me!
In Tokyo they think that I'm a "dream"
They claimed me an' named me
"America's Ambassador Supreme"

They always have a banquet
on the day that I arrive
In Borneo they made me eat
an octopus "alive!"
Because they love me? . . . they love me
an' they want me to come back again!

They love me, they love me!

With every place I visit it's the same!
They meet me, an' greet me!
With every kind of present you can name!

A chieftain in New Guinea
with his forehead painted "red"
presented me with a poison arrow
an' a "shrunken head"
Because they love me . . . oh they love me
an' they want me to come back again!

They love me, they love me!
I smile when I'm presented with a key!
In Thailand 'twas my land
I spent a happy day from two to three!

The day I left Arabia
my seat was full of bumps . . .
They made me ride a camel
where I sat between the humps!
Because they love me . . . they love me
an' they want me to come back
they want me to come back
they want me to come back again!
