Songtexte Oh! By Jingo - Billy Murray

In the land of San Domingo
Lived a girl called "Oh By Jingo"

Jada-da da-da-da-da-da-da
Ump-a Ump-a Ump-a Ump-a

From the fields and from the marshes
Came the old and young, by goshes

Yada-da da-da-da-da-da-da
Ump-a Ump-a Ump-a Ump-a

They all spoke with a different lingo
But they all loved Oh By Jingo
And ev'ry night, they sang in the pale moonlight

Oh by gee, by josh, by gum, by jove
Oh By Jingo, won't you hear our love
We will build for you a hut
You will be our favorite nut
We'll have a lot of little oh by gollies
Then we'll put them in the follies

By Jingo said "By gosh by gee"
"By jiminy please don't bother me"
So they all went away singin'
Oh by gee, by josh, by gum, by jove
By Jingo, by gee, you're the only gal for me

By Jingo had a lover, he was always undercover
Every night she used to meet him, how nice she used to treat him
They eloped but they both were collared
And the gang stood there and hollered
Don't raise a fuss, you've gotta take one of us

Oh by gee, by josh, by gum, by jove
Oh By Jingo, won't you hear our love
We will build a little still
We'll make whiskey on the hill
We'll have a lot of little liquor beggars
They'll grow up and be bootleggers

By Jingo said "Now boys don't rave"
"I put four husbands in their grave"
So they all went away singin'
Oh by gee, by josh, by gum, by jove
By Jingo, by gee, you're not the girl for me
