My son this news is quite a shock | |
I’m told you’ve done a runner | |
I suppose it’s all the same to you | |
If your family goes under | |
Oh father dearest father | |
Vienna called to me | |
And all in all I’d rather | |
Be here than in the bishopry | |
Oh father … | |
So now you do betray me | |
The father that you love | |
Well may you be forgiven | |
By a God above | |
So you left your job in Salzburg | |
Not content to run a choir | |
Not content with an honest buck | |
To see your heart’s desire | |
Oh father dearest father | |
Now I play to the Kaiser | |
And since I’ve moved to the capital | |
I’m wealthy and I’m wiser | |
Oh father father … | |
So you do betray me | |
The father that you love | |
Well may you be forgiven | |
By a God above | |
And if that was not enough | |
To cause your father’s heart to break | |
Well now I hear you’ve set up house | |
With that nest of Weber snakes | |
Oh father dearest father | |
How my loins do yearn | |
And St.Paul tells us it’s better | |
That we marry than we burn | |
So father … | |
So now you do betray me | |
The father that you love | |
Well may you be forgiven | |
By a God above | |
Oh father | |
Amen |
