Lyrics of An Occasionnal Man by Sarah Vaughan
I′ve got an island in the Pacific,
And everything about it is terrific;
I've got the sun to tan me,
Palms to fan me,
And - an occasional man!
I′ve got an island, it's very lazy,
If I should ever leave it I'd be crazy!
I′ve got papayas, peaches,
Sandy beaches,
And - an occasional man!
When I go swimmin′,
I am always dressed in style,
'Cause I go swimmin′
Wearin' just a great big smile!
My little island was made for pleasure,
And in the cool of evening it′s a treasure;
And when the hour grows later,
What is greater
Than - an occasional man!
If you're on shore leave
And your face is kinda cute,
Perhaps, by your leave,
I can be you passion fruit!
My little island is such a beauty.
You may gorget to heed the call of duty;
But if you give the slip
To your ship,
Miss your trip,
Take a tip
And blame -
An occasional dame!
Writer(s): Ralph Blane, Hugh Martin
