Sweet Siamese 1919

In an Oriental Climate,
there's a lovely maiden I met,
With eyes entrancing,
dancing, glancing bright
and I longed to woo her sighing
'till she left me shyly flying,
with blushes red on her cheeks of white,
into the shadows of night.

Sweet Siamese
'neath scented trees,
where moonlights beaming,
o'er tropic seas.
Will I woo you sighing
Queen of Siam.
Your slave I am.
I'd count the desert sand
to win your heart and hand,
My sweet Siamese.

Sweet Siamese
'neath scented trees,
where moonlights beaming,
o'er tropic seas.
Will I woo you sighing
Queen of Siam.
Your slave I am.
I'd count the desert sand
to win your heart and hand,
My sweet Siamese.

When the temple bells are tinkling,
and the Eastern stars are twinkling
to TomToms tuning,
spooning, crooning low
I will win her to a wedding,
all her gentle shyness shedding
and fill her true heart with happiness,
Few maidens more or less know.

Sweet Siamese
'neath scented trees,
where moonlights beaming,
o'er tropic seas.
Will I woo you sighing
Queen of Siam.
Your slave I am.
I'd count the desert sand
to win your heart and hand,
My sweet Siamese.

Sweet Siamese
'neath scented trees,
where moonlights beaming,
o'er tropic seas.
Will I woo you sighing
Queen of Siam.
Your slave I am.
I'd count the desert sand
to win your heart and hand,
My sweet Siamese.
