","In addition to the variant titles on the cover and first page of music, the copyright registration was for “My Alsace Lorraine; on to Paris or Berlin”. The subtitle was not used when the song first appeared; trade journals referred to it as “Alsace Lorraine” or “My Alsace Lorraine”, with the former slightly more common. "]},{"label":"Musical Note","value":"This song juxtaposes a ballad-style verse (\"Moderato con espressione\") in quadruple meter with a march-song refrain (\"Marcia\") in duple meter. The form is slightly unusual, with a twelve-bar verse and a conventional, thirty-two-bar refrain. Musical features are characteristic of both styles: melodic leaps and chromatic inflections in the verse; walking bass, dotted rhythms and fanfare fills in the refrain. An ossia high note brings the style slightly back towards a ballad at the end. The refrain is built upon the four-note phrase that opens the penultimate line of La Marseillaise (\"Marchons, marchons\"), quoting it explicitly three times."},{"label":"Dedication","value":"Dedication"},{"label":"Subject - Topic","value":["World War, 1914-1918","Songs and music","Popular music","Allegiance"]},{"label":"Subject - Geographic","value":["Berlin (Germany)","Paris (France)","Lorraine (France)","Alsace (France)","Germany","France","United States"]},{"label":"Subject - Temporal","value":"1911-1920"},{"label":"Lyrics","value":["[verse 1] There's a big bound'ry line in my heart, / What to do I am puzzled to know, / There's my daddy, my Ma and sweetheart, / They're apart, and it's grieving me so, / Alsace Lorraine holds my sweetheart, / I don't know which way to go.","[refrain 1] Alsace Lorraine / on to Paris or Berlin, / Come back again / there are hearts that call within, / Berlin, my father's land, / Paris, my mother's land, / Oh what plight I am in, / Alsace Lorraine / on to Paris or Berlin.","[verse 2] If I could, then I would please them all / That's a thing that is so hard to do, / If I should go and pay one a call, / I'd be grieving the dear other two, / Alsace and Berlin and Paris, / I'll bring them all over here.","[refrain 2]"]},{"label":"Musical Genre","value":"March song"},{"label":"Repository","value":"Newberry Library"},{"label":"Rights","value":"No Copyright - United States"},{"label":"Rights Description","value":"The organization that has made the Item available believes that the Item is in the Public Domain under the laws of the United States, but a determination was not made as to its copyright status under the copyright laws of other countries.
