Lily's Song

Hello, my name is Lily
My home is on the Materhorn.
Where I milk the cow,
And feed the sow,
I’m a pretty girl, who’s hairs a curl.
And I’m here waiting for my Liebchen.

So, I go swinging in the Alps all day.
I hope to find my Liebchen.
Yes, swinging, swinging, swinging, yoo hoo.
Swinging, swinging, swinging, yoo hoo.

There is a boy named Peter
Who love to come a calling.
But, he brings a friend,
An American.
The two go off, straight to the loft.
And I’m here waiting for my Liebchen.

So, I go swinging in the Alps all day.
I hope to find my Liebchen.
Yes, swinging, swinging, swinging, yoo hoo.
Swinging, swinging, swinging, yoo hoo.

Our goat herder’s name is Kurt,
He seems to stay alert.
But who cannot wait,
For his first date,
He grabs, poor Billy, by the ears midday.
And I’m left waitin’ for my Liebchen.

So, I go swinging in the Alps all day.
I hope to find my Liebchen.
Yes, swinging, swinging, swinging, yoo hoo.
Swinging, swinging, swinging, yoo hoo.

My Pa, says I’m silly
When I’m pining for a Willy.
“You’ll just have to wait,
To find your mate.
He can’t be far, he’s got a motor car.
And I’m still waitin’ for my Liebchen.
