Austin Lounge Lizards - The Lonely Yodeler

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1963517
When I was sixteen I met a German girl
She was seventeen and knew her way around the world
She said, "Put on these leather pants, don't question why"
She showed me a thing or three, but then she said goodbye

Now I'm a lonely yodeler
Yodel odel ay hee hoo
Yes, I'm a lonely yodeler
Yodel odel ay hee hoo

Now in my leather pants, I'm searching far and wide
For another glottal-stopping girl to be my bride
I joined a yodeling club, but that was not for me
I'm looking for one partner; they all had two or three

So I'm still a lonely yodeler
Yodel odel ay hee hoo
Still a lonely yodeler
Yodel odel ay hee hoo

(Now everyone has chosen to don ze lederhosen)
I won't wear wool or denim; I'd feel naked in 'em
(At night he yodels to himself instead of counting sheep)
Sometimes I wake to find that I have yodeled in my sleep

Someday I'll find that girl who's into leather too
Who needs a sturdy yeoman for her odel odel ay hee hoo
Our parts will harmonize so well, the perfect pair
We'll do it in the rumpus room and up and down the stairs
No more the lonely yodeler
Yodel odel ay hee hoo
No more the lonely yodeler
Yodel odel ay hee hoo
No more the lonely yodeler
Yodel odel ay hee hoo
Yodel odel ay hee hoo, hee hoo, hee hoo, hee hoo, hee hoo, hee hoo, hee hoo, hee hoo, hee—
Hoo
