That Russian Winter

Irving Berlin

The German troops heard Hitler shout
"We'll win this war without a doubt"
But they were never told about
That Russian winter

The German troops heard Hitler swear
He huffed and puffed and tore his hair
But somehow Hitler couldn't scare
That Russian winter

There was the German staff
Running from the storm
Poor Hitler's photograph
Couldn't keep them warm

When Hitler cried, "This cannot be!"
Napolean spoke beneath a tree
That Frenchman yelled, "You're telling me!"
That Russian winter
