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 off my mind Cindy oh Cindy Cindy don't let me down Write me a 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 deck caressed by memories Cindy oh Cindy... I know my Cindy's waitin' as I walk the dock alone Her loving arms reach out for me soon I'll be headin' home Then my sailing days will be over and no more will I roam Cindy oh Cindy girl... Cindy oh Cindy girl...
