Not sure this is the title, but has anyone heard a song with this "You'll be Paddling Madeleine Home" in it? I need the lyrics.

Any help would be greatly appreicated. Cookie

Bite my tongue! I always do this!

Anyways, Here you go:

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

'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 ^^^ (click)

Thank you. My mother used to sing bits of this to Little Duckling (aka Madeleine) but I never knew the song or where she got it from.

The song has been posted and harvested twice before, but neither version had the introductory verses that Alex posted.
