We Don’t Want the Bacon--What We Want Is a Piece of the Rhine

If you've read your history then
You're bound to know;
That we have always held our own
With any foe;
We've always brought the bacon home
No matter what they've done
But we don't want the bacon now;
We're out to get the hun!

We don't want the bacon
We don't want the bacon
What we want is a piece of the Rhine

We'll hit Bill Kaiser on the head
And make him wiser
We'll have a wonderful time!
Old Wilhelm Der Gross
Will shout "Vas is los?"
When we hit that hindenburg line

We don't want the bacon
We don't want the bacon
What we want is a piece of the Rhine!

When first this war began
They said we'd had no chance;
They couldn't figure how
We'd get out into France
But they will soon discover
Uncle Sam is out to win;
We've got the Fritzies on the run
We're headed for Berlin!

We don't want the bacon
We don't want the bacon
What we want is a piece of the Rhine!

We'll hit Bill Kaiser on the head
And make him wiser
We'll have a wonderful time!
Old Wihelm Der Grosse
Will shout "Vas is Los?"
When we hit that Hindenburg line

We don't want the bacon
We don't want the bacon
What we want is a piece of the Rhine!

Old Wilhelm Der Grosse
Will shout "Vas is los?"
When we hit that Hindenburg line

We don't want the bacon
We don't want the bacon
What we want is a piece of the Rhine!
