A mouse in a mill (in old Amsterdam)
(Rudi Carrel) English lyrics: D. van Altena |
Terug |
There once was a mouse back in old Amsterdam Who lived in a mill where he tiptoed and trampled While merrily singing How happy I am, A mouse in a mill here in old Amsterdam I saw a mouse (Where?) Up on the stairs (Where on the stairs?) Well there, his wooden shoes are thumpin To, fro and back Hear the click-clickety-clack on the stairs O yeah He grew a bit lonely alone in that mill But after a lady mouse whispered I will Soon they both started singing How happy I am, A mouse in a mill here in old Amsterdam I saw a mouse The famly they raised there of sweet little mice Grew bigger with every roll of the dice While the choir swelled singing How happy I am, A mouse in a mill here in old Amsterdam I saw a mouse The millers wife screamed and jumped out of her bed Then she and her husband just packed up and fled For the mice who were singing How happy I am, A mouse in a mill here in old Amsterdam I saw a mouse The mouse owns the mill now with his next of kin Cause nobody dares to go back in again |
