Prettiest little girl ever I saw
Stood on the banks of the Arkansas
Her hair was brown and her eyes were green
She was the prettiest little girl ever I’d seen
Well wave the ocean and wave the sea
Wave that pretty girl back to me
Wave the ocean and wave the sand
Wave this time, wave again, now look out
Prettiest little girl ever I saw
Stood on the banks of the Arkansas
Her eyes were wild and her stare was mean
She's the prettiest damn girl ever I seen
Well wave the ocean and wave the sea
Wave that pretty girl back to me
Wave the ocean and wave the shore
Wave this time, wave no more
