far across the blue waters
lives an old german's daughter
by the banks of the old river rhine
where i loved her and left her
but i can't forget her
cause i miss my pretty fraulein
fraulein fraulein
look up toward the heavens each night
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 memories wander
away over yonder
to the sweetheart that i left behind
in a moment of glory
a face comes before me
the face of my pretty fraulein
fraulein fraulein
walk down by the river
pretend that your hand's holding mine
by the same stars above you
i swear that i love you
you are my pretty fraulein
