A mouse lived in a windmill in old Amsterdam A windmill with a mouse in and he wasn’t grousin’ He sang every morning “How lucky I am Living in a windmill in old Amsterdam”. (Chorus) I saw a mouse — where? There on the stair Where on the stair? Right there A little mouse with clogs on — well, I declare Going clip-clippety-clop on the stair – oh yeah This mouse, he got lonesome, he took him a wife A windmill with mice in, it’s hardly surprisin’ She sang every morning “How lucky I am Living in a windmill in old Amsterdam” (Chorus) First they had triplets and then they had quins A windmill with quins in, triplets and twins in They sang every morning “How lucky we are Living in a windmill in Amsterdam — ya” (Chorus) The daughters got married and so did the sons The windmill had christenings when no one was listening They all sang in chorus “How lucky we am Living in a windmill in old Amsterdam” (Chorus) A mouse lived in a windmill, so snug and so nice There’s nobody there now but a whole load of mice

I haven’t Ronnie Hilton’s name mentioned since I came to Australia in 1967! Nice to hear his voice again.

I’m so glad the video was recommended for me. I loved the song about 30 years ago, when Maria & Keith used to sing it on A Handful of Songs; this rendition is great, too. The white mice on the girl’s head are too cute for words!
