Go to your left, your right, your left 
Go to your left, your right, your left 

I'm just like a prairie flower, honey, honey 
I'm just like a prairie flower, babe, babe 
Growing wild by the hour 
Honey, oh baby, mine 

Go to your left, your right, your left 
Go to your left, your right, your left 

I'm engaged to marry Sue, honey, honey 
I'm engaged to marry Sue, babe, babe 
I'm afraid to get undressed 
'Cause Mary's tatooed on my chest 
Honey, oh baby, mine 

Look around, look around 
Come join the happy hunting ground 
Seven women to each guy 
What a lovely way to die 
Honey, oh baby, mine 

Go to your left, your right, your left 
Go to your left, your right, your left 

Got a gal in every port, honey, honey 
Got a gal in every port, babe, babe 
Got a gal in every port 
They're suing me for non-support 
Honey, oh baby, mine 

Go to your left, your right, your left 
Go to your left, your right, your left 

Never saw a dame so large, honey, honey 
Broader than a landing barge, babe, babe 
For kissin' her, they gave to me 
The purple heart for bravery 
Honey, oh baby, mine 

Yesirree, yesirree, can you name the Lauralee 
She ain't much but what the heck 
I'm her favorite leatherneck 
Honey, oh baby, mine 

Go to your left, your right, your left 
Go to your left, your right, your left 
 
Go to your left, your right, your left 
Go to your left, your right, your left 
 
Nickle in the drink machine, honey, honey 
Nickle in the drink machine, babe, babe 
Down the hatch and never stop 
Gonna drink until I drop 
Honey, oh baby, mine 

Go to your left, your right, your left 
Go to your left, your right, your left 
Go to your left, your right, your left
