Sweet Little Caraboo 1904

Out in the land of Midnight Sun
There is a story told,
How once a Princess' heart was won,
Won by a warrior bold,
She was romantic
he was wise,
He knew just how to woo,
Late one night
Moon was bright,
He sang to Caraboo:

Sweet little Caraboo
I'd give my life for you,
My heart is glowing
My love is growing,
For you my Caraboo.

Sweet little Caraboo
I'd give my life for you,
My heart is glowing
My love is growing,
For you my Caraboo.

Next day when Morning Sun arose,
He came to claim her hand,
Just then a tribe of foreign foes
swooped down upon their land,
War Cry throughout that forest rang,
Light flashed in Big Chief's eye,
Caraboo
Brave and true,
Wept as he said goodbye.

Sweet little Caraboo
I'd give my life for you,
My heart is glowing
My love is growing,
For you my Caraboo.

Sweet little Caraboo
I'd give my life for you,
My heart is glowing
My love is growing,
For you my Caraboo.
