Chorus: There is somebody waitin' for me
In an old cabin down by the sea,
In the land where I wish I could be
There is somebody waitin' for me.

I know a cot in a very sweet spot
And I think of it ev'ry day;
It is all I've got my whole job lot
And it's miles and miles away
There were tears and sighs and fond goodbyes,
When the time came 'round to go
But as I jog along I sung this song
To myself because I know.

Chorus:

I know a face it's a very sweet face
It's the face of my very best girl,
I have seen all sorts in the diff'rent ports
As I've sailed all 'round the worl'
On my last trip east I'd a rare old feast,
I've the taste still on my tongue
But when I sailed west to my very very best
Little girl again I sung.

Chorus:
