Album: Great White Wonder

My name is Jack Dempsey
And I'm not very tall
I am forever deck washing

I live as a G.I.

My name is Jack, I like very much
Greta Garbo's picture in a bathing suit
We all love Jack, we are sailors
The name of our boat is
Shirley Temple

Then one day came the devil sergeant
While he was drunk he swore like a flute
He threw her photo up to the blue sky
What's more, he hit me on the head
with the deck brush

My name is Jack, my important mascot
Greta Garbo's picture in a bathing suit
We all love Jack, we like very much
the Greta Garbo that now floats on the waves
I wonder if she'll make it to Hollywood

Day after day, all I see is the sea
I climb the mast, from morning to
night I'm depressed
Joyful buddies Laurel & Hardy
Say with amazement
"Be skillful like Errol Flynn"

My name is Jack, I have no luck
From today I'm deck boxing from dawn to dusk
We all love Jack, we like very much
Greta Garbo and that one called Jack
My name is Jack, I wanna live in the back
Of the Greta Garbo's home
