GERMAN FUN AT UNION HILL.
Tune- " Skidmore Fancy Ball."

You have heardt de song off de Mulligan Guards,
And de Skidmore Fancy Ball,
But now I'm going to sing off one,
I'm sure dot beats dem all;
It is aboud our German friendts,
Dot go oud every year
To de Schuetzen Park at Union Hill.
To enjoy dere sport so dear.
Dere dey've dancing, dere dey're singing,
Drinking lager bier und wine,
Mit dere wives und all dere children
You bet dey have a jolly time

Chorus.
Dancing to de musik sweet
All around de hall,

So uv you vant to have some fun.
Den kom to Union Hill.

Ven I get tired dancing,
Den I valk around de park,
Und mit some pretty German girls

I dreat her mit some ice cream,
Und ve ride de kerrosell,
Den I ask her how she like dot,
Und she says, oh, pooty well.
Germans dancing, Germans singing,
Drinking lager bier und wine,
Mit dere wives und all dere children,
You bet dey have a jolly time.-Chorus.

Den ven id's getting nide,

Und I dake my pretty Deitcher girl
Oud den vor a valk;

Dere ve sit und drink our bier.

Are de happiest peoples dere.
Germans singing, glasses ringing,
Drinking lager bier und wine,
Mit dere wives und all dere children.
You bet dey have a jolly time.-Chorus.
