There`ll be a hot time
In the town of Berlin
When the Yanks go marchin` in
I wanna be there boy,
And spread some joy
When they take old Berlin
There`ll be a hot time
In the town of Berlin
When the Brooklyn boys begin
To take the joint apart
And tear it down
When they take old Berlin
They`re gonna start a row
And show them how
We paint the town back, in Kokomo
They`re gonna take a hike
Through Hitler`s Reich
And change his `Heil` to `What ya know, Joe`
There`ll be a hot time
In the town of Berlin
When the Yanks go marchin` in
You could never keep `em happy down on the farm
After they take Berlin
<instrumental interlude>
I`m gonna grab a Frau
And show her how
We paint the town back, in Michigan
I`m gonna take a hike
Through Hitler`s Reich
And change that `Heil` to `Gimme some skin`
There`ll be a hot time
In the town of Berlin
When the Yanks go marchin` in
You know that you could never keep `em happy down on the farm
After they take Berlin
