I've Got My Captain Working for Me Now

I've Got My Captain Working for Me Now - Bing Crosby (平克·勞斯)/Sonny Tufts

Johnny Jones was a first class private

In the army last year

Now he's back to business in his father's place

Sunday night I saw him with a smiling face

When I asked him why he felt so happy

Johnny chuckled with glee

He winked his eye and made this reply

Something wonderful has happened to me

I've got the guy

Who used to be my Captain

Working for me

He wanted work

So I made him a clerk

In my father's finary

And bye and bye

I'm gonna have him

Wrapped in work

Up to his brow

I make him open the office

Every morning at eight

He comes around about four hours late

It's great

Everything comes to those who wait

I've got my Captain working for me now

He's not worth what I have to pay him

But I'll never complain

I've agreed to give him fifty dollars per

It's worth twice as much

To hear him call me Sir

Hey the sir

While I sit in my cosy office

He's outside working hard

Out in the hall at my beck and call

With a feather duster standing on guard

Hot

Attacked

I've got the guy

Who used to be my Captain

Working for me

Hmm

He made me stay

In the kichen all day

Now he's do my happy

And bye and bye

I'm gonna have him wrapped in work

Up to his brow

When he comes into the office

I must get on my feet

Hey sir

I get the seat

Who was it said revenge is sweet

I got my Captain working for me now

I got my Captain working for me

Captain working for me

Ca-captain working for me now
