This song is very popular among both boy and girl scouts, and some girl scouts I've met say that they even learned it with the last verse intact. There are movements associated with the sounds, usually, and some troops perform this one by lining up 8 scouts, so that each verse is sung by just one scout, who also performs the sound/gestures for 'his' verse in the chorus section.
Oh, an Austrian went yodeling on a mountain so high
When along came an avalanche interrupting his cry,
Oh
Oh rockee, oh rockoo, swish! (3x)
Oh rockee, oh!
Oh, an Austrian went yodeling on a mountain so high
When along came a grizzly bear interrupting his cry,
Oh
Oh rockee, oh rockoo, swish! Ghrrr! (3x)
Oh rockee, oh!
(for each new verse, add the sounds associated with that verse)
Saint Bernard (hahh, hahh)/ (whoof, whoof)
pretty girl (kiss, kiss)
her mother (slap, slap)
her father (bang, bang)
an angel (flutter, flutter)
Oh, an Austrian went yodeling on a mountain so high
When along came a Girl Scout interrupting his cry
Oh
Oh rockee, oh rockoo, swish! Ghrrr! Hahh, hahh, Kiss, kiss, Slap, slap, Bang, bang, Flutter, flutter
Girl Scout cookies for sale! (shouted in high voice)
