Fuhrer Lyrics by Josh White (Blues)

Kickin’ Hitler’s Butt: Vintage Anti-Fascist Songs 1940-1944

1996

[Verse 1]
Tell me, my Führer, what can I do?
My hands are freezing and my nose is blue
I'm dying of cold but then you never can tell
'Cause when the Russians come, they make it hotter than hell
I got a touch of pneumonia, I got a terrible cough
If I sneeze once more, it's bound to carry me off
When the Russians come, they always take us by storm
And there's nothing like running if you want to get warm

[Chorus]
I wanna go back to what's left of Berlin
Sick of a war that I ain't gonna win
I seen the big red star that scared the pants off the tsar
Wanna go back to Berlin

[Verse 2]
Now listen, my Führer, I'm dead on my feet
I've got no place for sleeping, I've got nothing to eat
We've gone and finished all the food that we brought
And there's nothing here for miles around but food for thought
I've tightened my belt, it damn near cuts me in two
I've slept on my feet till my boots wore through
When I get thirsty, I melt snow in my cup
Well, I may be going hungry, but I'm all fed up

[Chorus]
I wanna go back to what's left of Berlin
Sick of a war that I ain't gonna win
I seen the big red star that scared the pants off the tsar
Wanna go back to Berlin

[Verse 3]
Now tell me, my Führer, how the hell can I be brave?
I've got one foot in Russia I've got one in the grave
I've got snow in my rifle, I've got lead in my pants
I'm so lonesome for a touch of romance
Well, I went to a village and I spotted a gal
I made a pass at her just to boost my morale
I got one broken ankle, I got two black eyes
Why couldn't she pick on somebody her size?

[Chorus]
I wanna go back to what's left of Berlin
Sick of a war that I ain't gonna win
I seen the big red star that scared the pants off the tsar
Wanna go back to Berlin
