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

orlook up toward the heavens each night

when the stars seem 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
