The Captain with the Whiskers歌词完整版

They marched through the streets with their banners so gay

I went to the window to hear the band play

I peeped through the blinds very cautiously then

Lest the neighbours should say I was looking at the men

I heard the drum beat and the music so sweet

But my eyes just then had a much finer treat

The troops were the finest that ever I did see

And the captain with the whiskers took a sly glance at me

When we met at the ball, I of course thought it right

To pretend that we never had met before that night

But he knew me at once, I could tell by his glance

And I hung down my head when he asked me to dance

He stayed by my side at the end of the set

And the sweet words he spoke I shall never forget

My heart was enlisted and could not get free

When the captain with the whiskers took a sly glance at me

Now they’ve marched from the town and I saw him no more

But I think of him often and the whiskers he wore

And I dream all the night and I think all the day

Of the love of the captain who’s gone far away

I hold in my mind how my heart skipped with glee

When the captain with the whiskers took a sly glance at me

I remember with superabundant delight

How we met at the ball and we danced all the night
