Lyrics

Hunting The Hun

Over in France there's a game that's played

By all the soldier boys in each brigade

It's called Hunting the Hun

This is how it is done!

First you go get a gun

Then you look for a Hun

Then you start on the run for the son of a gun

You can capture them with ease

All you need is just a little Limburger cheese

Give 'em one little smell

They come out with a yell

Then your work is done

When they start to advance

Shoot 'em in the pants

That's the game called Hunting the Hun!

First you go get a gun

Then you look for a Hun

Then you start on the run for the son of a gun

You can capture them with ease

All you need is just a little Limburger cheese

Give 'em one little smell

They come out with a yell

Then your work is done

When they start to advance

Shoot 'em in the pants

That's the game called Hunting the Hun!

I met a soldier and he told me

It's just the latest thing across the sea

It's the game that is new

They're all doing it too!

First you go get a gun

Then you look for a Hun

Then you start on the run for the son of a gun

You can capture them with ease

All you need is just a little Limburger cheese

Give 'em one little smell

They come out with a yell

Then your work is done

When they start to advance

Shoot 'em in the pants

That's the game called Hunting the Hun!

First you go get a gun

Then you look for a Hun

Then you start on the run for the son of a gun

If you want to bring them out

Offer them a little bit of hot sauerkraut

They come over the top with a pip and a hop

Then your work is done

When they stop in to eat

Cut off their retreat

That's the game called Hunting the Hun!

First you go get a gun

Then you look for a Hun

Then you start on the run for the son of a gun

You can always make them pain

Let them know there's going to be a pinochle game

They come over the top with a pip and a hop

Then your work is done

When they first show their face

Crump 'em with a mace

That's the game called Hunting the Hun!
