The Hut-Sut Song
Horace Heidt
Words and music by Leo V. Killion, Ted McMichael & Jack Owens
In a town in Sweden by a stream so clear and cool
A boy would sit and fish and dream when he should have been in school.
Now, he couldn't read or write a word but happiness he found
In a little song he heard and here's how it would sound;
Hut-Sut Rawlson on the rillerah and a brawla, brawla sooit,
Hut-Sut Rawlson on the rillerah and a brawla sooit.
Hut-Sut Rawlson on the rillerah and a brawla, brawla sooit,
Hut-Sut Rawlson on the rillerah and a brawla sooit.
Now the Rawlson is a Swedish town, the rillerah is a stream.
The brawla is the boy and girl,
The Hut-Sut is their dream.
Hut-Sut Rawlson on the rillerah and a brawla, brawla sooit.
Hut-Sut Rawlson on the rillerah and a brawla sooit.

Comments/Interpretations
I remembered this song from when I was a little girl; just the chorus and part of the verse following; it was fun to put in the search phonetically and find that someone had posted the song - pretty much as I remembered it.
I can remember this song from an old english sitcom called Terry and June.It has driven me nuts for over 30 years.redicoveredit on google yesterday and its driving me nuts again.I go to bed singing it and wake up singing it.Wheres the straight jacket??
It featured (in part) in the Kirk Douglas film Ace in the Hole and intrigued me.
As a young guy I worked with a man who had learned this song during the second world war whilst serving in the navy. All he new was the chorus and has no explanation of the meaning. I feel better now.
Yes, but what does "Sooit" mean?
I first heard the Hut Sut song in the movie A Christmas Story. Trying to figure what the song was nearly drove me crazy until I heard it one day on the Big Band and Swing channel on the cable music channels. Thanks for printing the lyrics.
wasn't this in a bugs bunny cartoon
No,Tmack.It was from Merrie Melodies.
Don,I think you mean the Horton says to the audience,"I still can't get the words for that song!".

Does anyone out there know or know of a song called Breathless from the 30s or 40s with a chorus that goes: "You take my breath away, My tassels are all in a heap, You've got me right where I want you, Baby, you walk in my sleep"? Part of a main verse line is: "Every single time that I'm inclined, To tell you what is on my mind,". It was on an old 78 that my parents had when I was a kid. I used to play it and others on a old victrola we had in the attic. I've googled it and looked up tunes on 78s, but so far, no luck. I really want those lyrics! Help!
Re: my previous comment. If anyone has those lyrics to Breathless, please e-mail to jlemcke1@rochester.rr.com. Thanks!
I don't quite know that song Breathless,Marilee. The songs I know are I like to move it,move it,and from Hello,Dolly,Put on your Sunday Clothes and It Only Takes A Moment.
I wish music like that era of time was still around....I am 14 and LOVE that era!
I remember this song from my childhood during WW2. My mom sang it all of the time and drove us crazy. Now I wish we could hear her singing it one more time.
Thanks, Howard, I was just about to send Marilee the words. You remember them just as I do. This is a great web site. Last time I googled it, Madonna's lyrics from the "Dick Tracy" movie kept showing up.
YES... What does "soo-it" mean?
I was watching the movie "A Christmas Story" today and for the first time watching it, I heard the Hut Sut Song in the back ground. When I started to sing along my wife thought I was going crazy. Thank god for Google.

delightful to hear these oldies. keep up the good work.
My dad sang this to me all the time in the 1960's and 70's. He passed away this year at age 84. I think of all the times I said that I should record him singing these songs so I will have them for the rest of my life and for my children. nfortunately I never did. But..... I can still hear him in my head.
I remember the it from a Bugs Bunny cartoon when I was a kid. It's been driving me nuts because every year I hear it on "A Christmas Story". This year I finally found out what it was because of this page. THANK YOU!! Some sanity has been restored!
I sang what I thought this said to my kids and now my grands.... Found out what was really being said last night
my mom used to sing that to me when we were kids
Like flt, I too heard it first on Terry snd June, and it drove me mdtoo. A couple of weeks ago, I met a man who started singing it, When I asked hm wat it was about,he said he didn't know,but everyone sang it in those days, early'50s I should think
Memories - I can remember trying to sing the Hut Sut with my own words - now I can do it with the right ones.
Dad used to sing this song, pronouncing "Ralston." With that my brother and I naturally thought it had to do with 'Hot Ralston' cereal. Explanations went no further than that.
My wife says to me, don't you think our birds would like some suet? (Our back yard birds have plenty of seeds.) So then this dumb song started playing in my head. Even tho I'm 83, there is no rest, no relief.
i remember my Dad constantly singing this song when i was a little boy. I've been thinking about it a lot since Dad passed away three weeks ago. now the tune is stuck in my head! love you, Dad!
My Dad used to sing this song when he was in a particularly good mood. Never knew the origin.
If you grew up in Northern NJ there is a roadhouse called Ruts Hut; "Ruts Hut sat on the river road..."
Did anyone ever here a song I listened to as a kid on my folks 78 player: "Breakfast at seven, shooting at nine. Ten o'clock they put you in a box made of pine."
It's not 'soo-it'... it's 'suet', it's used in cooking and making tallow. :)
Loony Tunes
This is a hit from 1941 by Freddy Martin and his orchestra. I play it every now and again, to get the feel of the Big Band era. I am 76 and enjoy most music, except the "nude" women numbers today!
My question is do those nonsense words truly translate into the Swedish the lyric supplies or are they in fact meaningless jnventions by the songwriters? Anybody Swedish-speaking out there?
The tune was going though my head tonight. I was too young to know the correct spelling and used to sing phonetically. I have just Googled Hutsut + Brola Brola and the song words came up.
"Marsey dotes.etc... translation "Mares (horses) eat oats, Does (deer) eat oats and Little Lambs eat ivy, A Kid(baby goat) will eat ivy too wouldn't you?" Words are all run together to get the sounds you hear.
I remember this song from my childhood because the Toehee bird sings a song like the beginning of the chorus. New appreciation for the song and the bird.
OMG! This is where the Internet is amazing! My father used to sign this song, but I really had no idea what the words were (probably neither did he). I put in "old song- bowl of suet". And up it popped. Incredible!
Look up the video of Fats Domino playing "On the Bayou". The sax master, during his awesome solo, plays dittys from this song.
Interesting comments. I too have been humming this song in my mind occasionally, since I was five. Today, 77 year’s later, this catchy little melody popped into my mind again this morning while my wife and I were eating breakfast. I sang the song as best as I could remember it and asked her if she had ever heard it - she had not. Based solely on what I had told her, she picked up her i-pad and found this website. I have finally learned why I could never make sense of the words . . . . I was trying to anglicize them (what’s that boiling on the Willa-Walla rolling ball of suet?) I was too young to know any better. I’ve finally learned the words before I died. . . . Thank you!
Nov shmoz ka pop, I say, 1506 nix nix. I listened to this song and was immediately flurjified with reality con gleam.
Rip Torn showed his scorn before you were born. Every morn he blew his horn which was tattered and torn. The hat he had worn.........
I heard this on the cartoon and started singing it and a few words. It popped back into my brain after so many many years, happy it came back to me as mom used to sing this to me when I was very young!
This song is discussed in the Bing Crosby movie, "Going My Way", where one priest is telling Father O'Malley (Bing) that he doesn't understand today's music and went on about a song he heard talking about "it was hotsa time on the rilla rye...". Bing has a recorded version of Hut Sut, too, so maybe it was a sort of product placement for Bing's record in the movie.
Praise the Lord for Homer and Jethro, who I heard sing this wonderful song!
