> Lyrics to Paddlin' Madelin' Home
> by Harry M. Woods
>
> Verse I
> I love a girl named Madelin'
> I know she loves me too
> For ev'ry night the moon is bright
> She rides in my canoe
> At midnight on the river
> I heard her father call
> But she don't care and I don't care
> If we get back at all:
>
> Verse II
> The moon comes up at six o'clock
> And I come up at eight
> She's always waitin' for my call
> And meets me at the gate
> I've petted in the parlor
> And hugged her in the hall
> But when she's out in my canoe
> I lover her best of all:
>
> Chorus I
> 'Cause when I'm paddlin' Madelin' home,
> Gee! when I'm paddlin' Madelin' home,
> First I drift with the tide, then pull for the shore.
> I hug her and kiss her and paddle some more,
> Then I keep paddlin' Madelin' home,
> Until I find a spot where we're alone.
> Oh! She never says "no," so I kiss her and go
> Paddlin' Madelin', sweet, sweet Madelin',
> Paddlin' Madelin' home
>
> Chorus II
> 'Cause when I'm paddlin' Madelin' home,
> Gee! when I'm paddlin' Madelin' home,
> First I kiss her a while, and when I get through,
> I paddle for one mile and drift back for two,
> Then I keep paddlin' Madelin' home,
> Until I find a spot where we're alone.
> Oh! If she'd only say, "Throw your paddles away"
> Paddlin' Madelin', sweet, sweet Madelin',
> Paddlin' Madelin' home.
