For Admiral Grayson—A ROAST TO THE KAISER
Here’s to the Kaiser
The Limburger cheese
May the swell in his head
Go down to his knees -
May he break his damn neck
On the Hindenburg line
And go to Hell croaking
“The Watch on the Rhine”!
Here’s to the Kaiser
The Limburger cheese
May the swell in his head
Go down to his knees -
May he break his damn neck
On the Hindenburg line
And go to Hell croaking
“The Watch on the Rhine”!
