Wann i a Vögerl wär

Wann i a Vögerl wär und zwa Flügerl hatt'
flög i zu dir, flög i zu dir
Weils aber nit kann sei' schick i mi halt halt so drei',
bleib i halt hier, bleib i halt hier.

's Leben streicht tauri hin. Wann i bei dir nit bin
hab halt ka Freud, hab halt ka Freud.
Aber wärst du noch mei i wollt bald lusti sei,
da wär's a Freud, da wär's a Freud.

by J. Körnlein
