You ought to see my Cindy, she lives away down South
She's so sweet the honey bees swarm around her mouth
(Chorus:)
Git along home, Cindy, Cindy
Git along home, Cindy, Cindy
Git along home, Cindy, Cindy
I'll marry you some day.
The first I seen my Cindy, she was standing by the door
Her shoes & stockings in her hand, her feet all over the floor
(Chorus)
She took me to her parlor, she cooled me with her fan
She said I was the prettiest thing in the shape of mortal man
(Chorus)
She kissed me and she hugged me, she called me sugar plum
She throwed her arms around me, I thought my time had come
(Chorus)
I wish I had a needle, as fine as I could sew
I'd sew the girls to my coattail & down the road I'd go
(Chorus)
I wish I was an apple, a-hangin' on a tree
And every time my Cindy passed, she'd take a bite of me
(Chorus)
Cindy in the springtime, Cindy in the fall
If I can't have my own Cindy, I'll have no girl at all
(Chorus)
She's so sweet the honey bees swarm around her mouth
(Chorus:)
Git along home, Cindy, Cindy
Git along home, Cindy, Cindy
Git along home, Cindy, Cindy
I'll marry you some day.
The first I seen my Cindy, she was standing by the door
Her shoes & stockings in her hand, her feet all over the floor
(Chorus)
She took me to her parlor, she cooled me with her fan
She said I was the prettiest thing in the shape of mortal man
(Chorus)
She kissed me and she hugged me, she called me sugar plum
She throwed her arms around me, I thought my time had come
(Chorus)
I wish I had a needle, as fine as I could sew
I'd sew the girls to my coattail & down the road I'd go
(Chorus)
I wish I was an apple, a-hangin' on a tree
And every time my Cindy passed, she'd take a bite of me
(Chorus)
Cindy in the springtime, Cindy in the fall
If I can't have my own Cindy, I'll have no girl at all
(Chorus)
