The Ballad of the German Soldier's Bride.

And what did he send you my bonny lass,
From the old old town of Prague?
From Prague he sent me ribboned shoes,
Ribboned shoes for my dancing toes,
From the old old town of Prague.

And what did he send you my bonny lass,
From Oslo over the sea?
From Oslo he sent me a fur-lined hood,
A fur-lined hood so soft and so good,
From Oslo over the sea.

And what did he send you my bonny lass,
From Paris the city of light?
From Paris he sent me a silken dress,
A dream caress of a silken dress,
From Paris the city of light.

And what did he send you my bonny lass,
From the deep, deep Russian snows?
From Russia he sent me my widow's weeds,
From the funeral feast my widow's weeds,
From the deep, deep Russian snows.
