Dave Hansen--According to someone or other at "Straight Dope", Donovan originally sang, "Liebau"," which was the German name for the Polish town of Lubawka. During the war, Lubawka was the site of a training centre for the Hitler-Jugend (Hitler Youth). There was also a labour camp situated in the vicinity."

Meself--Donovan, not Buffy, had the big a hit single of "Universal Soldier"--
