作曲:Richard Rodgers

We got sunlight on the sand

We got moonlight on the sea

We got mangoes and bananas

You can pick right off the tree

We got volleyball and ping pong

And a lot of dandy games

What ain't we got

We ain't got dames

We get packages from home

We get movies we get shows

We get speeches from our skipper

And advice from Tokyo Rose

We get letters doused with perfume

We get dizzy from the smell

What don't we get

You know darn well

We got nothin' to put on

A clean white suit for

What we need is

What there ain't no substitute for

There is nothin' like a dame

Nothin' in the world

There is nothin' you can name

That is anythin' like a dame

We feel restless we feel blue

We feel lonely and in brief

We feel every kind of feelin'

But the feelin' of relief

We feel hungry as the wolf felt

When he met red hiding hood

What don't we feel

We don't feel good

Lots of things in life are beautiful but brother

There is one particular thing

That is nothin' whatsoever

In any way shape or form like any other

There is nothin' like a dame

Nothin' in the world

There is nothin' you can name

That is anythin' like a dame

Nothin' else was built the same

Nothin' in the world

As the soft and wavy frame

Like the silhouette of a dame

There is absolutely nothin'

Like a frame of a dame

So suppose a dame ain't bright

Or completely free from flaws

Or as faithful as a bird dog

Or as kind as Santa Claus

It's a waste of time to worry

Over things that they have not

We're thankful for the things they got

There is nothin' you can name

That is anythin' like a dame

There are no books like a dame

And nothin' looks like a dame

There are no drinks like a dame

And nothin' thinks like a dame

Nothin' acts like a dame

Or attracts like a dame

There ain't a thing that's wrong

With any man here

That can't be cured by putting him near

A girly womanly female

Feminine dame
