When Roger wrote it he called it "The Swiss Maid", when he recorded it in 1961 he called it "Fair Swiss Maiden". Go figure.

It's never been known under this the title you posted. Surely it's always been 'Swiss Maid.'

Del Shannon covered this in the early 60's.

Roger Miller could sing anything and I would like it. This is just great! Just found in wikipedia that Roger Miller wrote this. Didn't know that. Although he was such a prolific writer, and usually performed his own songs. Thanks for posting!

A great song with a wonderful arc to the story and an enigmatic ending that only the viewer can discern. Hope or despair? Depends on your perspective...
