Rat-tat-tat-tat
Eddie:
Our Boys Went Rat-tat-tat-tat,
Rat-tat-tat-tat,
And Shot the Kaiser Where He Sat-tat-tat-at.
With Every Poppity-pop,
Some Kraut Took a Drop.
American Boys Are All Such Straight Shooters--
We'll Take Care of Him, Mother,
When He Comes Home From the War.
We'll Take Care of Him, Mother,
We'll Do Everything That You Would Do--yeah--and More.
Rat-tat-tat-tat,
We'll Give Their Backs a Big Pat.
They Deserve a Future Full of Joys
'cause They're Our Yankee Doodle,
Yankee Doodle,
Yankee Doodle,
Doughboys.
Company--order--arms--roll Call--
Company:
I'm Private Jones From Arkansas,
I'm Private Smith From Kansas,
I'm Private Ryan From Maine,
I'm Private Burke From Wisconsin,
I'm Private O'brien From Texas,
I'm Private Muntz From Michigan,
Fanny:
.i'm Private Schvartz From Rock-a-way,
And I Guess You Heard Reports
That the Kaiser Runs a Block Away
When They Tell Him, Here Comes Schvartz,
'cause Ven I Get Mad, Believe It, Jack,
Out From Nowhere Comes a Maniac,
A Kick in the Foot,
A Shot in the Pants--
I Wouldn't Give a Second Chance.
Schvartz From Rock-a-way.
Chorus:
Private Schwartz
Private Schwartz
Private Schwartz From Rock-a-way.
Fanny:
I Met Mademoiselle From Armentieres
And My Bagels Gave a Spin (Oy, Yoy),
She Said, Private Schvartz,
Come Closer, Dear!
What a Tzimmis I Got In!
Ven You're Fighting For Democracy,
Call On Irving Schvartz and Company,
I'm Through and Through
Red, White and Bluish,
I Talk This Way
Because I'm British.
Tell Far Rock-a-way, Don't Pull the Dock Away,
'cause Sailing Home Is General Schvartz.
All:
Rat-ta Ta Ta Ta Tat,
We'll Give Their Backs a Big Pat.
They Deserve a Great Big Medal
And a Loud Huzzah,
Over Here and Over There
You'll Hear
Rat-tat a Tat Tat,
Rat-tat a Tat Tat,
Rat Tat a Tat Tat Tat,
That's Our Yankee Doodle,
Yankee Doodle
Rat Tat a Tat Tat Tat
Hurrah.
