Lyrics
And it s shining on the water, my darling daughter, mama must i keep on dancing
Do i look inviting, if his manner becomes a shade improper Yes,, my darling daughter
How can i keep him in his place, if he holds me tight, when the night is growing shorter
If he holds me tight, my darling daughter Shore, my darling daughter
What if there s a moon, may i try romancing, and it s shining on the water
mama darling
and my knees just turn to water
My darling daughter, how can i keep him in his place
what if he should insist on one embrace
mama darling
How can i keep him in his place, my darling daughter My, my darling daughter
What should be my answer, may i try romancing
My darling daughter, my darling daughter

And it s shining on the water, what should be my answer
