Verse 1: Oh where, oh where ish mine little dog gone;
Oh where, oh where can he be;
His ears cut short und his tail cut long;
Oh where, oh where ish he.
Chorus: Tra la la la, la la la, la la la la,
La la la, la la la, la la la la,
Tra la la la, la la la, la la la la,
La la la, la la la la.
Verse 2: I loves mine lager, 'tish very goot beer,
Oh where, oh where can he be;
But mit no money I cannot drink here,
Oh where, oh where ish he.
Interlude:
Verse 3: Across the ocean in Garmanie,
Oh where, oh where can he be;
Der deitcher's dog ish der best companie,
Oh where, oh where ish he.
Interlude:
Verse 4: Un sausage is goot, bolonie of course,
Oh where, oh where can he be;
Dey makes 'em mit dog und dey makes 'em mit horse,

I guess they makes 'em mit he.
Chorus: [Gleefully} Tra la la la, la la la, la la la la,
La la la, la la la, la la la la,
Tra la la la, la la la, la la la la,
La la la, la la la la.
