The Swiss Maid

歌詞

One time a long time ago On a mountain in Switzerland, yo lo lo lo There lived a fair young maiden Lovely but lonely, oh oh oh oh Day after day, she'd pine her heart away Yo lo lo lo lady yay But no love came her way One day, her papa said, "Some day we'll go down to the village In the valley, there you'll meet a nice young man, he'll ask for your hand Then you'll be happy" But every day she grew unhappier On a mountain in Switzerland, yo lo lo lo Every day a little bit lonelier Which way to turn and which way to go Day after day, she'd pine her heart away Yo lo lo lo lady yay But no love came her way Some say the maiden's dream never came true She never got to go to the valley If she did or not, I really don't know, oh oh oh oh Did she die unhappy? I'd rather think she found her love Wouldn't you rather think she did find love? Somewhere, some way Yo lo lady yay, yo lo lady yay
