My Girl Back Home

My girl back home
I’d almost forgot
A blue-eyed kid
I liked her a lot
We got engaged
Both families were glad
And I was told by my uncle and dad
That if I were clever and able
They’d make me a part of a partnership
Cable, Cable, and Cable
How far away
Philadelphia, PA
Princeton, NJ
How far are they
From coconut palms
And banyan trees
And coral sands
And Tonkinese
How far away
Little Rock, ARK
Princeton, NJ
How far are they
From coconut palms
And banyan trees
And coral sands
And Tonkinese
