Wenn Die Soldaten
Marlene Dietrich
When the Soldiers
When the soldiers
March through the city
The girls open
The windows and the doors
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
Two-colored scarves
Mustaches and stars
Hearts and kisses
The girls like so much
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
A glass of red wine
And a piece of roast
The girls give
Their soldiers
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
When bombs and grenades
Flash in the field
The girls cry
For their soldiers
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
When the soldiers
Return home
Our girls
Have long been married
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
When the soldiers
March through the city
The girls open
The windows and the doors
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh why? Oh that's why!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
Oh just because of
Schingderassa
Bumderassasa!
