I live up here on this hill

She lives down there in the green belt

Her parents don't like me 'cause I 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 girl I love

Semaphore signals coming down from above

I'm up all night sending signals

Tapping out love in morse code

Forever trying new angles

Keeping 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

Till then I'll be standing by my window sill

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
