Stalin wasn't stallin' When he to1d the beast of Berlin That they'd never rest contented Til they had driven him from the land So he called the Yanks and English And proceeded to extinguish The Fuhrer and his vermin This is how it all began
Now the Devil he was reading In the good book one day How the God created Adam To walk the righteous way And it made the Devil jealous He turned green up to his horns And he swore by things unholy That he'd make one of his own
So he packed two suitcases Full of grief and misery And he caught the midnight special Going down to Germany Then he mixed his lies and hatred With fire and brimstone Then the devil sat upon it That's how Adolf was born
Now Adolf got the notion That he was the master race And he swore he'd bring new order And put mankind in it's place! So he set his scheme in motion And he was winning everywhere Until he up and got the notion For to kick that Russian bear
Yes he kicked that noble Russian But it wasn't very long Before Adolf got suspicious The he had done something wrong Cause that bear grabbed the Fuhrer And gave him an awful fight Seventeen months he scrapped the Fuhrer Tooth and claw, day and night
Then that bear smacked the Fuhrer With a mighty armored paw And Adolf broke all records Running backward towards Krakaw Then Goebbels sent a message To the people everywhere That if they couldn't help the Fuhrer Go down help that Russian bear
Then this Bear called on his buddy The noble fighting Yank And they sent the Fuhrer running With their ships and planes and tanks Now the Fuhrer's having nightmares Cause the Fuhrer knows damn well That the Devil's done wrote " Welcome " On his residence in Hell
