I Sent My Wife To The Thousand Isles (Album Version)

Al Jolson

We stood upon the pier today
And said our last goodbye

And as I held her hand in mine
A tear filled my eye

She saw that tear and said I hate to leave my darling boy
I turned away, she did not know
Those tears were tears of joy

I sent my wife to the Thousand Isles today
My luck is on my way
She's gonna spend a week on every isle
That's why I'm gay

So everybody come and give three cheers
She's gonna be away for twenty years
Oh I sent my wife to the Thousand Isles today, hooray

Just think when I get home tonight there'll no wifey there
And right across the table isle will be a vacant chair

I love my wife, I love my wife, I love her more each day
I love my wife, I love my wife, because she's far away

Ha, ha, I sent my wife to the Thousand Isles today
She's on her way
She's gonna spend a week on every isle
That's why I'm gay

Tonight I'm going home at half past ten
Put on my clothes, go out again

Cause I sent my wife to the Thousand Isles today
