Chorus:
Oh Davy of the Navy you’re a wonderful, wonderful boy
You took a notion to sail the ocean
And you fill my heart with joy
When you hop and you skip on your old battle ship
You simply carry me away
Go on surround ’em and then you’ll drown ’em
It’s up to you to win the day (go get ’em)
Race ’em, go on and chase ’em
Sink all those German Submarines
Play them just like a child plays with a toy, Sailor boy
Do what Admiral Dewey did
Go on and sink that fleet
Make the German Kaiser holler out and say defeat
Oh Davy of the Navy you’re a wonderful, wonderful boy
