Chim Chim Cher-ee - Wiener Sängerknaben

Chim chiminey
Chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-ee!
A sweep is as lucky
As lucky can be
Chim chiminey
Chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when
I shake 'ands with you
Or blow me a kiss
And that's lucky too
Now as the ladder of life
'As been strung
You may think a sweep's
On the botton most rung
Though I spends me time
In the ashes and smoke
In this 'ole wide world
There's no 'appier bloke
Chim chiminey
Chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-ee!
A sweep is as lucky
As lucky can be
Chim chiminey
Chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when
I shake 'ands with you
A broom for the shaft
And a brush for the flute
Up where the smoke
Is all billered and curled
'Tween pavement and stars
Is the chimney sweep world
When there's hardly no day
Nor hardly no night
There's thing half in shadow
And halfway in light
On the rooftops of London
Coo,what sight
On the rooftops of London
Coo,what sight
Chim chiminey
Chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-ee!
When you're with a sweep
You're in glad company
No where is there
a more 'appier crew
than them wot sings
Chim chim cher-ee
chimcher-oo
chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-ee,
chim cher-oo!
Chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-ee,
chim cher-oo!
