On A Coconut Island - Louis Armstrong

On a coconut island

I’d like to be a castaway with you

On a coconut island

There wouldn’t be so very much to do

I would linger a while and just gaze into your lovely eyes so blue

Then I’d walk for a mile and come running back to be with you

There the waves would make a pair of willing slaves of you and me forever

And we’d laze for days and days and never gaze out where the ships go sailing by

On a coconut island

I’d like to be a castaway with you

Just to bask in your smile

And to realize my dream come true

I would linger a while and just gaze into your lovely eyes so blue

Then I’d walk for a mile and come running back to be with you

There the waves would make a pair of willing slaves of you and me forever

And we’d laze for days and days and never gaze out where the ships go sailing by
