Lyrics
- Up in the Alpine mountains many miles away
There lives a Tyrol lad, he’s feeling sad today
He met a doll who taught him how to love
She’d call him sweetie dear and turtle dove
Now she is gone
He lingers on this refrain
Chorus
Just like summer Alpine skies above
Ev’rything is blue, my heart is sad
I’m feelin’ bad
Oh! I need your lovin’ hon’ to be glad
Baby you just stole my heart and love
Then you went away, I’m all alone
The breezes moan the Alpine blues
- She never wrote a note or told him a find goodbye
Now he is puzzled just to find the reason why
He never knew she was a vampire bold
Why even all her little tricks were old
Oh! how he fell
Just hear him tell it again
