How I wished my folks were gracious hosts and not dismayed  
                          D        		      Em     
But wit and wisdom take a backseat when you?re that afraid  
D					 G 
Oh no, bring her home and the folks look ill  
D                                Em                     
My word, they can?t forget, they never will  
 
         G				  D 		         G	 
They can hear the storm troops on our lawn when I show her in  
                  D        		     Em 
And the Fuhrer is alive and well in our panelled den  
D					 G 
Oh no, bring her home and the folks look ill 
D				       B            B7   
My word, they cant forget that war, what a war  
 
Chorus: 
C                   G 
My word, she's from Germany  
         D                        G 
It?s the same old country but the people have changed  
C                   G 
My word, she's from Germany  
         D                    Em            D 
With its splendid castles and fine cuisine  
 
The car I drive is parked outside, its German-made  
They resent that less than people who are German-made  
Oh no, bring her home and the folks look ill  
My word, they cant forget that war, what a war  
 
Chorus  
 
G 
Its lovely German women and its wonderful  
                             B 
rivers that do flow from her hills  
 
Chorus (3X)+   
    D                       Em      G 
Its lovely German women and you and me
