LYRICS

← Back to top

You ought to see my Cindy
She lives way down south
She’s so sweet the honeybees
Swarm around her mouth.

Chorus:
Get along home, Cindy Cindy
Get along home,
Get along home, Cindy Cindy
I’m going to marry you.

Cindy in the summer
Cindy in the fall
If I don’t get Cindy
I won’t marry at all.

(Chorus)

When I went to see her
She was standin’ in the door,
With her shoes and stockings in her hand,
And her feet all over the floor.

(Chorus)

I wish I was an apple
Hanging on a tree
Every time that Cindy passed
She’d take a little bite of me
