1. De wedding bells are ringin’ loud,
O! Lucindy!
Invitin’ in de merry crowd,
O! Lucindy!
A smile is lightin’ ev’ry face,
O! Lucindy!
A-beamin’ on de happy bride,
Our little ’Cindy Jane.

[REFRAIN sung after each VERSE]
O! ’Cind! Lucind!
O! little ’Cindy Jane!

CHORUS [sung twice after each REFRAIN]
Den we’ll all gather ’round, while the music will sound,
For it’s joy and it’s jubilee must reign,
And our blessin’s on de pair, will ring out upon de air,
At de wedding of our little ’Cindy Jane!

2. De golden bells of love dhey sound,
O! Lucindy!
Atink lin’ in all hearts around,
O! Lucindy!
Oh! may de sun wid glory shine,
O! Lucindy!
Forever on de little bride,
Our own Lucinda Jane.
