Tiny Bubbles
(Lyrics & History)

The United States Military uses call-and-response songs, known as cadences or jodies, led by a Drill Sergeant or Instructor. This practice, started by PVT Willie Lee Duckworth in World War II, remains essential in boot camps and training.

Tiny bubbles

In my beer

Make me happy

And full of cheer

 

Left, yo’ left

Yo’ left, right, left

Left, yo’ left

Yo’ left, right, left

 

Tiny bubbles

In my wine

Make me happy

And feel so fine

 

Left, yo’ left

Yo’ left, right, left

Left, go’ left

Yo’ left, right, left

 

Tiny bubbles

In my whiskey

Make me happy

And feel so frisky

 

Left, go’ left

Yo’ left, right, left

Left, yo’ left

Yo’ left, right, left
