An Occasional Man

Ralph Blane, Hugh Martin

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!
I've got an 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! When I go swimmin'
I am always dressed in style
'Cause I go swimmin'
Wearin' just a great big smile!
My little island was made for pleasure
And in the cool of evening it's a treasure
And when the hour grows later
What is greater than - an occasional man!
If you're on shore leave
And your face is kinda cute
Perhaps, by your leave
I can be you passion fruit!
My little island is such a beauty
You may gorget 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!
