We Saw The Sea - Fred Astaire

作词：Irving Berlin

作曲：Irving Berlin

We joined the Navy to see the world

And what did we see

We saw the sea

We saw the Pacific and the Atlantic

But the Atlantic isn＇t romantic

And the Pacific isn＇t what it＇s cracked up to be

We joined the Navy to do or die

But we didn＇t do and we didn＇t die

We were much too busy looking at the ocean and the sky

And what did we see

We saw the sea

We saw the Atlantic and the Pacific

But the Pacific isn＇t terrific

And the Atlantic isn＇t what it＇s cracked up to be

They tell us that the Admiral

Is as nice as he can be

But we never see the Admiral

Because the Admiral has never been to sea

We joined the Navy to see the girls

And what did we see

We saw the sea

Instead of a girl or two in a taxi

We were compelled to look at the Black Sea

Seeing the Black Sea isn＇t what it＇s cracked up to be

Sailing sailing home again

To see the girls upon the village green

Then across the foam again

To see the other seas we haven＇t seen

We joined the Navy to see the world

And what did we see

We saw the sea

We never get seasick sailing the ocean

We don＇t object to feeling the motion

We＇re never seasick but we are awful sick of sea

We joined the Navy

We joined the Navy

We joined the Navy
