One time a long time ago On a mountain in Switzerland Yo lo lo lo lo There lived a fair young maiden Lovely but lonely Yo ho ho ho
Day afetr day she'd pine her heart away Yo lo lo lo lo lo lady yay Because no love came her way
One day her papa say Someday 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 the mountain in Switzerland Yo lo lo lo lo Every day a little bit lonelier Which way to turn, which way to go
And day after day she'd pine her heart away Yo lo lo 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 Wo ho ho ho Did she die unhappy?
I'd rather think she found her love Wouldn't you rather think she did find love Somewhere, someway Yodel lady ay Yodel lady ay
