What was sent to the soldier's wife
From the ancient city of Prague
From Prague came a pair of high-heeled shoes
With a kiss or two came the high-heeled shoes
From the ancient city of Prague

What was sent to the soldier's wife
From Oslo, over the sound
From Oslo there came a collar of fur
How appeases her, little collar of fur
From Oslo, over the sound

What was sent to the soldier's wife
From the wealth of Amsterdam
From Amsterdam
He got her a hat
She looked sweet in that
In a little dutch hat
From the wealth of Amsterdam

What was sent to the soldier's wife
From Brussels in Belgium land
From Brussels he sent her laces so rare
To have and to wear
Oh those laces so rare
From Brussels in Belgium land

What was sent to the soldier's wife
From Paris, city of light
In Paris he got her a silken gown
T'was end in town
Oh silken gown
From Paris, city of light
What was sent to the soldier's wife
From the south from Bucharest
From Bucharest
He sent her his shirt
Embroidered and pert
That Rumanian shirt
From the south of Bucharest

What was sent to the soldier's wife
From far-off Russian land
From Russia there came
Just a widow's veil
A death to be wed
In her widows veil
