Swiss Miss |
Up on the top of a snow-covered mountain |
There lived an Alpine miss |
And oh, what a sweet little miss was this |
We mean this little Swiss miss |
While down in the valley below (Ho-ho) |
Lived a boy who loved her so (Ho-ho) |
He loved her with all his might |
He loved her day and night |
And every night just to see this miss |
He used to risk his scalp |
For the house where she lived was away up high |
And the poor guy didn’t know how to fly |
So he jumped from alp to alp |
What a chump (What a chump) |
To jump (To jump) |
From alp to alp |
And then beneath her balcony |
He used to stand around and try to make a hit with her |
And he would yodel, «O-lay-eee-tee» |
That’s the Swiss idea of a melody |
And oh, what a yodeling fool was he |
He shook a wicked yodel |
And one night as he stood there |
The lights were very dim |
While leaning out too far across her balcony |
She fell for him |
He sat with his arms around her |
Until the night was gone |
And here’s the way they carried on |
He said, «Dear I think you’re just as sweet as you can be |
You’re like a cake of sweet Swiss chocolate to me» |
She said, «Oh, my loving one, your talk I can’t resist |
I hope you’re as steady as the Swiss watch ticking on your wrist» |
He said, «How I yearn for you, I burn for you, I do! |
I do! |
Oh, lady, oh, I swear it on my knees |
My love for you is just as strong as a piece of Sweitzer cheese» |
