Far across the deep blue water lives an old German's daughter   By the banks of the old River Rhine   There I loved her and left her but I can't forget her   She is my pretty Fraulein   Fraulein Fraulein look up towards 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   [ fiddle - piano ]   When the 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 is holding mine   By the same stars above you I swear that I love you   And always will my Fraulein
