Cindy, oh, Cindy
Cindy, don't let me down
Write me your letter soon
And I'll be homeward bound

I joined the Navy to see the world
But nowhere could I find
A girl as sweet as Cindy
The girl I left behind
I've sailed the wide world over
Can't get her out of my mind

Cindy, oh, Cindy
Cindy, don't let me down
Write me your letter soon
And I'll be homeward bound

I see her face in every wave
Her lips kiss every breeze
Her loving arms reach out for me
Through calm and stormy seas
At night I pace the lonely decks
Caressed by memories

Cindy, oh, Cindy
Cindy, don't let me down
Write me your letter soon
And I'll be homeward bound

I know my Cindy's waiting
As I walk the decks alone
Her loving arms reach out for me
So, I'll be headin' home
Then my sailin' days will be over
And no more will I roam

Cindy, oh, Cindy
Girl, don't you let me down
Write me your letter soon
And I'll be homeward bound

Oh, oh, homeward bound
Just to see my
Cindy, oh, Cindy
Cindy, oh, Cindy
Cindy, oh, Cindy
