Sammy Davis Jr. - There Is Nothin' Like a Dame lyrics

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 have nothin' to put on a clean white suit for We got nothin' to look masculine and cute for... There is nothin' like a dame Nothin' in the world There is nothin' you can name That is anything like a dame! We feel lonely and we long for For the fair and gentle s** We would like to feel the feeling Of some arms around our necks We feel as hungry as the wolf felt When he met Red Riding Hood Now 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, fashion, or form to do with any other There is nothin' like a dame Nothin' in the world There is nothin' you can name That is anything 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 And 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 pullin' him near A girly, womanly, female, feminine dame!
