There's a lake in the park
There's a house by the lake
There's a girl in the house in the park by the lake
And the girl in the house by the lake in the park
Is the girl in the little green hat
And tonight after eight
That's when I've got a date
When the moon's riding high and the stars light the sky
With the girl in the house by the lake in the park
The girl in the little green hat
There no water in the lake
No roof upon the house
No treesies in the park at all
But I'll wait beside the lake
I'll be welcome at the house
I'll meet her by the garden wall
There's a ship on the lake
There's a sailor on the shore
There's a girl in his arms, she's the girl I adore
So goodbye to the house by the lake in the park
And the girl in the little green hat
There's a storm on the lake
There's a ship in the storm
There's a girl on the ship in the storm on the lake
And the girl on the lake on the ship in the storm
Is the girl in the little green hat
As the ship starts to dip
She is losing her grip
Every dip makes a tip, not the girl, but the ship
But the girl on the ship has the pip from the trip
The girl in the little green hat
She's been sailing quite enough
She's been clinging to the rails
She's dying to be home once more
'Cause the lake is rather rough
And the girl is rather pale
She's glad to get her feet on shore
Ah, she gave up the ship
And the captain and his men
Bought a complimentary ticket to my arms once again
Now I'm back in the park at the house by the lake
With the girl in the little green hat
There's a house by the lake
There's a girl in the house in the park by the lake
And the girl in the house by the lake in the park
Is the girl in the little green hat
And tonight after eight
That's when I've got a date
When the moon's riding high and the stars light the sky
With the girl in the house by the lake in the park
The girl in the little green hat
There no water in the lake
No roof upon the house
No treesies in the park at all
But I'll wait beside the lake
I'll be welcome at the house
I'll meet her by the garden wall
There's a ship on the lake
There's a sailor on the shore
There's a girl in his arms, she's the girl I adore
So goodbye to the house by the lake in the park
And the girl in the little green hat
There's a storm on the lake
There's a ship in the storm
There's a girl on the ship in the storm on the lake
And the girl on the lake on the ship in the storm
