Lyrics:
In the land of San Domingo
Lived a girl named Oh! By Jingo
Tada, da da da da da da
Um-pa, um-pa, um-pa, um-pa

From the fields and from the marshes
Came the old and young by goshes
Tada, da da da da da da
Um-pa, um-pa, um-pa, um-pa

They all spoke in a different lingo
But they all loved Oh! By Jingo
And every night
They sang in the pale moonlight

Oh! By Gee! By Gosh, by Gum, by Juv
Oh! By Jingo won’t you hear my love?
We will build for you a hut
You will be our favorite nut
We’ll have a lot of little Oh! By Gollies
Then we’ll put them in the Follies

By Jingo said, “By Gosh, by Gee,
By Jiminy, please don’t bother me”
So they all went away singing
Oh! By Gee, by Gosh, by Gum, by Juv,
By Jingo, by Gee, you’re the only one for me

By Gee! You’re the only girl for me
By Gosh! You’re the only one for me
By Juv! You’re the only girl for me
By Gosh! You’re the only one for me
