A LITTLE DUTCH MILL
Words, Ralph Freed. Music, Harry Barris.
As sung by Bing Crosby with the Jimmie Grier Orchestra (1934)

Far across the sea in Holland,
In the land of wooden shoes,
There's a story nearly ev'ryone knows.
You may never be in Holland,
So I know you will excuse
If here and now I tell you how it goes.

There's a little Dutch mill,
On a little Dutch hill
Where the little Dutch stars shine bright.
Now, a little Dutch boy
And his little Dutch girl
Fell in love by the mill one night.

Up above, the Dutch moon
Made the scene complete.
They both had so much moon
That it was a real Dutch treat;
So the little Dutch boy
And the little Dutch girl
Bought the little Dutch mill
On the little Dutch hill,
And they've added the touch
Of a little Dutch family.

Up above, the Dutch moon
Made the scene complete.
They both had so much moon
That it really was the real Dutch treat;
So the little Dutch boy
And the little Dutch girl
Bought the Dutch mill on the Dutch hill,
And they added the touch
Of family.
