Del Shannon The Swiss Maid Lyrics

One time a long time ago on a mountain in Switzerland
Yo de lo lo lo
There lived a fair young maiden, lovely but lonely
Yo oh oh oh

Day after day she'd pine her heart away
Yo lo lo lo lo lo lady yay
But no love came her way

One day her papa say:
"Some day we'll go down to the village in the valley
There you'll meet a nice young man;
He'll ask for your hand;
Then you'll be happy"

(Humpapa humpapa humpapa
Humpapa humpapa humpapa-pa) 2x

But every day she grew unhappier
on a mountain in Switzerland - Yo de lo lo lo lo
Every day a little bit lonelier
Which way to turn, which way to go?

Day after day she'd pine her heart away
Yo lo lo lo lo lo lady yay
But no love came her way

Some say the maiden's dream never came true
She never got to go to the valley
If she did or not I really don't know
Wo ho ho ho
Did she die unhappy?

I'd rather think she found her love
Wouldn't you rather think she did find love?
Somewhere, someway
Yo de lady yay - Yo de lady yay
