PADDLIN' MADELIN' HOME
words and music by Harry Woods
©1925, Shapiro, Bernstein, & Co.

'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

'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

Harry Woods was one of the writers of "I'm Looking Over a Four-Leaf Clover" and "When the Moon comes Over the Mountain."

Good Lord, Joe, but you're being useful tonight: Two songs to add to my repertoire in five minutes. This one I remember from somewhere among the dim shadows of my youth, and if I recall correctly, the tune is very much like "What Have They Done to My Song?" --seed

This is only a fair representation of the tune. It should be a bit faster, and there's a bit of syncopation that doesn't quite sound right on a MIDI. Don't think I'd compare it to "Look What They've Done to My Song," though there are similarities. What generation do you come from, anyhow, Seed?
