Sailor Jack has just come back
from a place that must be grand,
Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee land.
With a cockatoo, a miniature zoo,
and a photo in his hand
of Saucy Sal, the sort of gal
that sailors understand.

Yo Ho! Yo Ho!
What a lovely place to know!
Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!
The sun is strong,
the days are long,
but the girls are not so slow
in Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!
They roll their eyes,
they roll their hips,
and the sailors all roll off their ships.
Yo Ho! Yo Ho!
On the road to Mexico!
Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!

Yo Ho! Yo Ho!
What a lovely place to know!
Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!
The sun is strong,
the days are long,
but the girls are not so slow
in Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!
They roll their eyes,
they roll their hips,
and the sailors all roll off their ships.
Yo Ho! Yo Ho!
On the road to Mexico!
Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!

Sailor Jack lies on his back,
in his sleep he cries 'Heave Ho!'
Take me where the Pokee Okee
darkeyed darlings grow.

In ev'ry port there's a different sort
of girl to hold your hand,
but sailors say there's no sort like the
Pokee Okee brand.

Yo Ho! Yo Ho!
What a lovely place to know!
Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!
The sun is strong,
the days are long,
but the girls are not so slow
in Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!
They roll their eyes,
they roll their hips,
and the sailors all roll off their ships.
Yo Ho! Yo Ho!
On the road to Mexico!
Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!

Yo Ho! Yo Ho!
What a lovely place to know!
Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!
The sun is strong,
the days are long,
but the girls are not so slow
in Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!
They roll their eyes,
they roll their hips,
and the sailors all roll off their ships.
Yo Ho! Yo Ho!
On the road to Mexico!
Pokee Okee Pokee Okee
Pokee Okee Oh!
