We're Going to Hang Out Our Washing on the Siegfried Line Songtext
von Flanagan and Allen

Mother dear, I′m writing you from somewhere in France,
Hoping this finds you well.
Sergeant says I'm doing fine, a soldier and a half,
Here′s a song that we'll all sing, it'll make laugh!

We′re gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
Have you any dirty washing, mother dear?
We′re gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
'Cause the washing day is here.

Whether the weather may be wet or fine,
We just rub along without a care!
We′re gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
If the Siegfried Line's still there!

We′re gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
Have you any dirty washing, mother dear?
We're gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
′Cause the washing day is here.


Whether the weather may be wet or fine,
We'll just rub along without a care!
We're gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
If the Siegfried Line′s still there!

Everybody′s mucking in and doing their job,
Wearing a great big smile.
Everybody's got to keep their spirit up today,
If you want to keep in swing,
Here′s a song to sing;

We're going hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
Have you any dirty washing, mother dear?
We′re gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
Why? 'Cause the washing day is here.

Now whether the weather may be wet or fine,
Well we′ll just rub along without a care!
We're going to hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
Well if the Siegfried Line's still there!

Whether the weather may be wet or fine,
We′ll just rub along without a care!
We′re gonna hang out the washing on the Siegfried Line,
If the Siegfried Line's still there!
