Lyrics

Refrain
When Tony goes over the top
He no think of the barber shop
He grab-a-da gun and chas-a-da hun
And make ‘em all run like a son-of-a-gun
You can bet your life he’ll never stop
When Tony goes over the top
Keep your eyes on the fighting wop
With a fire in his eyes he’ll capture the Kais’
He don’t care if he dies
When Tony goes over the top

Refrain
When Tony goes over the top
He no think of the barber shop
He grab-a-da gun and chas-a-da hun
And make ‘em all run like a son-of-a-gun
You can bet your life he’ll never stop
When Tony goes over the top
Keep your eyes on the fighting wop
With a rope of spagett and big-a-sti-lette
He’s make-a the Germans sweat
When Tony goes over the top
