WHEN MY DREAMBOAT COMES HOME
Clifford Friend (m) Dave Franklin (l) 1936
as rec by The King Sisters w Frank DeVol & his Orch 1947
I gotta guy who's as sweet as can be,
He makes me happy when he comes home to me!
I call him dreamboat, all that jive,
And I'm livin' for the moment when he will arrive!
When my dreamboat comes home,
Then my dreams no more will roam,
I will meet you and I will greet you,
hold you closely, my own.
Moomlit waters will sing
Of the tender love you bring.
We'll be sweethearts for ever
When my dreamboat comes home.
When dreamboat starts to come on home,
You can really really really be sure that my dreams no more will roam.
Here and there, everywhere, i will meet you and greet you,
Hold you closely, my own.
Moonlit waters will sing
Of the tender love you bring.
Well be sweethearts for ever,
Toot-toot!
When my dreamboat,
When my dreamboat;
I gotta guy who's as sweet as can be,
He makes me happy when he comes home to me!
I call him dreamboat, all that jive,
And I'm livin' for the moment when he comes home!

as recorded by Fats Domino
When my dreamboat, comes home
and my dream no more will roam
I will meet you and I'll greet you
when my dreamboat comes home.
Moomlit waters will sing
cause that tender love you'll bring
we will be sweethearts, yes forever
when my dreamboat comes home.
When my dreamboat, comes home
and my dream no more will roam
I will meet you and I'll greet you
when my dreamboat comes home.
Moonlit waters will sing
cause that tender love you'll bring
we will be sweethearts, yes forever
when my dreamboat comes home.
