Lyrics

By lawton williams

Far across deep blue water
Lives an old german's daughter
On the banks of the old river rhine
Where I loved her and left her
Now I can't forget her
She was my pretty fraulein

Fraulein, fraulein
Walk down by the river
Tonight when the stars start to shine
By the same stars above you
I swear that I love you
You are my pretty fraulein

When my memory wanders
Away over yonder
To that cute girl that I left behind
In a moment of glory
Her face comes before me
The face of my pretty fraulein
