Semaphore Signals Lyrics

I live up here on this hill
She lives down there in the green belt
Her parents don't like me 'cause I'm come from the hill
Their little girl's future is in doubt
I ain't got no money to buy her
Her parents expect nothing less
But, at night, under cover of darkness
She sneaks out to receive my S.O.S.

I'm sending semaphore signals to the green belt
Semaphore signals down to her house
Semaphore signals to the gal I love
Semaphore signals coming down from above

I'm up all night sending signals
Tapping out love in Morse code
Forever tryin' new angles
Keepin' in touch on a string telephone
Messages of love to the green belt
From a semaphore lover on the hill
Who's one day gonna hear some wedding bells
But, 'til then I'll be standing by my windowsill

I'm sending semaphore signals to the green belt
Messages of love down to her house
Semaphore signals across enemy lines
Semaphore signals that bring tears to my eyes
I'm sending semaphore signals to the green belt
Semaphore signals down to her house
Semaphore signals across enemy lines
Semaphore signals that bring tears to my eyes

I'm sending semaphore signals to the green belt
Semaphore signals to the green belt
Just sending semaphore signals to the green belt
Keep sending semaphore signals to the...
