And may he bring “our godson” up
To don the Army Blue.
Chorus—
BENNY HAVENS, OH!
Come, fill your glasses, fellows, and stand up in a row,
To singing sentimentally, we’re going for to go;
In the Army there’s sobriety, promotion’s very slow,
So we’ll sing our reminiscences of Benny Havens, Oh!
Oh! Benny Havens, Oh! Oh! Benny Havens, Oh!
