Nun-Yuff And Sun-Yuff 1936 JPitt-Payne

He was handsome, tall and dark,
a Russian Romeo.
Of his beard he was so proud
it took six years to grow.
Me! Oh! My!
My Oh! Me!
He fell in love with a turtle dove
and then came tragedy.

His name was NunYuff
he came from Plotsk;
Her name was SunYuff
she also came from Plotsk.
He said to SunYuff:
"Let's go to Omsk."
"Alright," said SunYuff,
they both went off to Omsk.
He had whiskers
right down to his knees.
Ev'ry time he kissed her
she would sneeze,
(then the cuckoo flew out)
SunYuff said: "NunYuff
your beard is rough,
we won't get wed
till you cut the darn thing off."

Hired a droshki
Sunyuff was glad,
he drove the droshki
and went to Petrograd.
Down by the Volga
Sunyuff got mad.
When they met Olga
the vamp of Petrograd.
Olga tickled Nunyuff's
bearded chin.
Sunyuff saw and then
she raised a din,
(then the war was started)
In Vladivostok
they heard and cheered
they knew that SunYuff
had cut off Nunyuff's beard.
