Hans Christian Andersen - Danny Kaye

Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen

Friendly old girl of a town

'Neath her tavern light

On this merry night

Let us clink and drink one down

To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen

Salty old queen of the sea

Once I sailed away

But I’m home today

Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful

Copenhagen for me

I sailed up the Skagerrak

And sailed down the Kattegat

Through the harbor and up to the quay

And there she stands waiting for me

With a welcome so warm and so gay

Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen

Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen

Friendly old girl of a town

'Neath her tavern light

On this merry night

Let us clink and drink one down

To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen

Salty old queen of the sea

Once I sailed away

But I’m home today

Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful

Copenhagen for me
