Am Sonntag in der Kirch'n
Zillertaler Schürzenjäger
On Sunday in the Church
In the name of the Lord!
On Monday we make our deals
We screw over a few fools
On Tuesday we use our strength
And throw our elbows too
When we can’t bribe anyone
We’re busy with the cheating
When we’re not spreading lies
We’re just fighting with the neighbors
But on Sunday in the church
We humbly lower our eyes
We pray for the poor sinners
Thanking God for our faith
We give what we can to charity
Sing and drop to our knees
On Sunday in the church
In the name of the Lord
On Sunday in the church
In the name of the Lord
On Wednesday we inject the cattle
So they grow up right
On Thursday we raise the rent
And kick out those who complain
If we’re not beating our wives
We’re there to stir up trouble
When we’re not hunting foreigners
We’re just sharpening our knives
But on Sunday in the church
...
On Friday grandma gets declared incompetent
She doesn’t want to go to the nursing home
Otherwise, we sin again
Because we go to confession on Saturday
INSTRUMENTAL
And on Sunday in the church
