Thread Name: good old Dutch & goddam Dutch/Drunk Last Night
Subject: ADD: The Dutch Company
THE DUTCH COMPANY.

1. Oh, when you hear the roll of the big bass drum,
Then you may know that the Deitch have come;
For the Deitch company is the best company
That ever came over from old Germany.         

2. When Greek meets Greek, then comes the tug of war,
When Deitch meets Deitch, then comes the lager beer;
For the Deitch company is the best company
That ever came over from old Germany.

CHORUS
Ho-ra, ho-ra, ho-ra la la la la,
Ho-ra, ho-ra, ho-ra la la la la,
Tra la la la la,
Tra la la la la,
Heis mine oys-ter raw.
