When Captain Jinks comes home at night
He claps his hands with all his might
Salute your partner, smile so bright
For that's the style in the army
Join your hands and forward all
Backward all, backward all
Join your hands and forward all
For that's the style in the army
When Captain Jinks comes home at night
The gentleman passes to the right
Swing your partner so polite
For that's the style in the army
Promenade all around the hall
Around the hall, around the hall
Promenade all around the hall
For that's the style in the army

When Captain Jinks comes home at night

For that's the style in the army
Join your hands and forward all
Backward all, backward all
Join your hands and forward all
For that's the style in the army
When Captain Jinks comes home at night
The gentleman passes to the right
Swing your partner so polite
For that's the style in the army
Promenade all around the hall
Around the hall, around the hall
Promenade all around the hall
For that's the style in the army
