My Maid Of The Fiji Isles 1917

Far away,
far away, Far away for many many miles,
Night and day,
Night and day,
My thoughts are of these Fiji isles,
Since, I met that maiden fair,
On that Island over there,
I'm dreaming of her night and day.

Out where the cocoanuts are growing,
Out where the sun shines ev'ry day.
That's where my thoughts are always turning,
I long for her both night and day.
Out where the natives are so loving,
Where ev'rybody greets you with a smile,
That's where I soon will be a going,
To my maid of the Fiji Isles.

Far away,
far away, in that sunny land of Fiji isles,
Lovers stray,
Night and day,
While music sweet their heart beguiles,
Ev'ry night time in my dreams,
I am over there it seems,
Strolling with that girl of mine.

Out where the cocoanuts are growing,
Out where the sun shines ev'ry day.
That's where my thoughts are always turning,
I long for her both night and day.
Out where the natives are so loving,
Where ev'rybody greets you with a smile,
That's where I soon will be a going,
To my maid of the Fiji Isles.
