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!
