abbey lincoln - an occasional man lyrics
[verse 1]
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
[verse 2]
i love my 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
[bridge]
when i go swimmin’
i am always dressed in style
’cause i go swimmin’
wearin’ just a great big smile
[verse 3]
my little island was made for pleasure
and in the cool of the evening it’s a treasure
and when the hour grows later
what is grеater than
an occasional man
[verse 4]
my little island is such a beauty
you may forgеt 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
[outro]
an occasional dame
an occasional dame
an occasional dame
