Subject: RE: O Katharina From: GUEST Date: 29 Aug 10 - 05:11 PM Gentlemen...I have had this tune in a Mitch Miller Songbook for years now...a favorite...posted it on my website for you: http://www.perfectlyintune.com/page16/page38/page38.html |
Subject: RE: O Katharina From: TomG Date: 24 Jul 99 - 07:55 PM After listening to the rather old scratchy recording Frank Maher kindly e-mailed us, we believe the line after "arena" is "You're such a CROWD, my Katherine" This makes more sense than "frau". Tom |
Subject: RE: O Katharina From: Ferrara Date: 24 Jul 99 - 05:24 AM Sure, love to have the song. We had a family friend when I was a kid, who was on the ample side. She was a lovely person and didn't mind being joining in the singing (as far as I could tell at the age of 7 or 8) and I always think of her when I hear either this song or the Too-Fat Polka. zither@erols.com |

Subject: RE: O Katharina From: TomG Date: 23 Jul 99 - 08:44 PM Well, two ideas about the line I was missing: Both are good but don't ring a bell - I think I learned a different line. (My German father-in-law had a chubby wife named Katherine, so he sang it a lot!) Ferrara: You've missed a verse. After "eat Farina": "Oh Katharina, unless you're leaner I'll have to build a big arena," then the line I was seeking, whether it be queen, frau, or something else. TomG |
Subject: RE: O Katharina From: Ferrara Date: 23 Jul 99 - 01:44 PM No fair! -- I can't remember all of it either and I'd love to have it! - Here's what I remember.
Oh Heinie sailed from Rotterdam,
One night he went to see the Follies,
Oh Katherina, O Katherina, How about beefing that up, filling it out so to speak? - Rita F |
Subject: RE: O Katharina From: Frank Maher Date: 23 Jul 99 - 10:00 AM The line after Big Arena is You're such a Frau, My Kath-erine I got a lot,when I got You. |
