Far across deep blue waters lives an old German daughter
By the banks of the old river Rhine
Where I loved her and left her, but I can't forget her
Cause I've missed my pretty Fraulein
Fraulein, Fraulein, look up towards the heavens
It's night when the stars seem to shine
By the same stars above you, I swear that I love you
Cause you are my pretty Fraulein
When my memories wander
Oh, when my memories wander

Way over yonder, to the sweetheart that I left behind
In a moment of glory, her face comes before me
The face of my pretty Fraulein
Fraulein, Fraulein, walk down the river Rhine
Way over yonder, to the sweetheart that I left behind
In a moment of glory, her face comes before me



By the banks of the old river Rhine




By the same stars above you, I swear that I love you
Cause you are my pretty Fraulein
