In de Vintertime
This song is in English, but the w's have been changed to v's and the "the's" to "de's" to make it sound Dutch or German.
In de Vintertime
Traditional Song
In de vinter, in de vintertime,
Ven de vind blows on de vindow pane
And de vimmen in de vaudeville
Ride a velocipedes in de vestibule.
Ah, vimmens,
Ah, mens!
Notes
Here's this song with the proper spelling:
In the winter, in the wintertime,
When the wind blows on the window pane
And the women in the vaudeville
Ride a velocipedes in the vestibule.
Ah, women,
Ah, men!
