Up on the top of a snow covered mountain There lived an Alpine miss
And oh what a sweet little miss was this We mean this little Swiss miss While down in the valley below Lived a boy who loved her so
He loved her with all his might He loved her day and night
And every night just to see this miss He used to risk his scalp
For the house where she lived was away up high And the poor guy didn't know how to fly So he jumped from alp to alp
What a chump What a chump To jump To jump From alp to alp
And then beneath her balcony He used to stand around and try to make a hit with her And he would yodel O lay eee tee That's the Swiss idea of a melody And oh what a yodeling fool was he He shook a wicked yodel
And one night as he stood there
The lights were very dim
While leaning out too far across her balcony She fell for him
He sat with his arms around her Until the night was gone
And here's the way they carried on
He said Dear I think you're just as sweet as you can be You're like a cake of sweet Swiss chocolate to me She said Oh my loving one your talk I can't resist I hope you're as steady as the Swiss watch ticking on your wrist He said How I yearn for you I burn for you I do I do Oh lady oh I swear it on my knees
