Текст песни Swiss Miss (Джордж Гершвин) с переводом

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 (Ho-ho)

Lived a boy who loved her so (Ho-ho)

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

My love for you is just as strong as a piece of Sweitzer cheese»
