Vhen ash de var vas oberA
und Beace her shnow wice vingsB
Vas vafin' o'er de coondryA
in shpodts like efery dingsB
Und heroes vere revardtetC
de beople all peganD
To say 'tvas shameE
dat nodings vas done for BreitemannD
-
No man wised how id vas shtartetC
or vhere de fore shlog cameE
Boot dey shveared it vas a cinderA
dereto a purnin' shameE
Dere is Schnitzerl in de Gustom HouseB
potzblitz can dis dings beF
Und Breitemann he hafe nodingsB
vot sighds is dis to seeB
-
Nod de virst ret cendt for BreitmannD
ish dis do pe de gryA
On de man dat sacked de repelsB
und trinked dem high und dryA
By meine Seel' I shvears idC
und vhat's more I deglares id's drueA
He vonce gleaned oudt a down in half an ourA
und shtripped id strumpf und shoeG
-
Vhen dey ploondered de down of HuntsvilleH
I dells you vot py tamI
He burned oop four biano fordsB
and a harp to roast a hamI
Vhen he found de rouge und mail de ParisB
which de laties hafe hid in a shpotC
He whited his horse all oferA
und denn pinked his ears bei GottC
-
Vhen he found dat a blace was ploonder foolJ
he alvays tell dem sureA
'Men sack und pack I shoots mine eyesB
for only shoost an uhr '-
Boot if de blace vas fery richK
he vouldt say mit a solemn mienD
'Men I only shleep for von half uhr moreA
ve moost hafe tiscipline '-
-
He vas shoost like K nig EtzelL
of whom de shdory dellM
Der Hun who go for de RomansB
und gife dem shinin hellM
Only dis dat dey say no grass vouldt crowA
vhere Etzel's horse had trotC
Und I really peliefe vhere Breitmann goA
de hops shpring oop bei GottC
-
If once you tie a dog looseB
dere ish more soon geds aroundtC
Und vhen dis vas shtartedt on BreitmannD
id was rings aroom be foundtC
Dough vhy he moost hafe somedingsB
vas nod by no means glearA
Nor tid id like Paulus' confersionD
on de snap to all abbearA
-
Und in facdt Balthazar Bumchen saidtC
he couldtent nicht blainly seeB
Vhy a feller for gaddrin' richesB
shood dus revartedt peN
Der Breitmann own drei HouserA
mit a weinhandle in a stohrA
Dazu ein Lager WirthschaftC
und sonst was somedings moreA
-
Dis plasted plackguard none senseB
ve couldn't no means shtandC
From a narrow mineted shvine's kopfO
of our nople captain grandC
Soosh low goarse betty bornirtheitC
a shentleman deploresB
So ve called him verfluchter HundsfottC
und shmysed him out of toorsB
-
So ve all dissolfed dat BreitmannD
shouldt hafe a nominationD
To go to de LegisladoorA
to make some dings off de nationD
Mit de helb of a Connedigut manD
in whom ve hafe great hobesB
Who hat shange his boledics fivdeen dimesB
und derefore knew de robesB
