- Verse:
- 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.
-
- Chorus:
- '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.
