KUNZ -- WARTIME PIANO MEDLEY No. D 31 -- starting with "RUN RABBIT RUN", followed by "I'M SENDING YOU THE SIEGFRIED LINE TO HANG YOUR WASHING ON", "ADOLF" (SIDE A), and "WE'RE GONNA HANG OUT THE WASHING ON THE SIEGFRIED LINE", "HERE WE GO AGAIN (THIS TIME IT'S GONNA BE THE LAST TIME") and "KISS ME GOODNIGHT, SERGEANT MAJOR"

Speranza



Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run
Bang, bang, bang, bang! goes the farmer's gun
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run

Missus telling all the neighbours here today
Has written home No records on the way

Everybody had drown here the letter read

And excited for this is what it says

Dear ma, I’m feeling rather dumb

My washing on the Siegfried line gun

Watching Siegfried

Tell me That Hitler fun

He left behind the Siegfried line

I couldn’t bring a little souvenir for Marie

‘cause I met a German soldier who sent me back to Tipperary

Love from your ever loving son

My washing on the Siegfried line is done the monkey’s gun.



-----

A certain German Chancellor has lost his head
He's going to get a headache somewhere else instead! And he will be retiring very soon, To join a certain Kaiser down in doom! Adolf, you've bitten off much more than you can chew; Come on, hold your hand out, we're all fed up with you, gor blimey! Adolf, you toddle off, and all your Nazis too! Or you may get something to remind you of the old red white and blue! We're sick of all the muddle and the mess you've made, You've gone and stuck your fingers in the marmalade! So now you're going to get a big surprise, You're nothing but a basket full of lies! Adolf, you've bitten off much more than you can chew; Come on, hold your hand out, we're all fed up with you, gor blimey! Adolf, you toddle off, and all your Nazis too! Or you may get something to remind you of the old red white and blue! Adolf!



WE’RE GONNA HANG OUT THE WASHING

ON THE SIEGFRIED LINE

have you any dirty washing, mother dear?

WE’RE GONNA HANG OUT THE WASHING

ON THE SIEGFRIED LINE

‘cause the washing day is here.

whether the weather may be wet or fine

we'll just ride along without a care

WE’RE GONNA HANG OUT THE WASHING
ON THE SIEGFRIED LINE

if that Siegfried line's still there.



Here We Go Again (This Time It's Gonna Be The Last Time


KISS ME GOODNIGHT SERGEANT MAJOR

tuck me in my little wooden bed

we all love you sergeant major,

even when your neck grows rather red (‘when we hear you bawling, show a leg)

don't forget to wake me in the morning

& bring me 'round a nice hot cup of tea

KISS ME GOODNIGHT SERGEANT MAJOR

sergeant-Major be a mother to me
