German text
Es was einmal ein stoltzer knab/
der saget seinem bülen ab/
Klopff wer do wöll/
mich lust nit solcher abentheur/
Das ich die lieb kauff also theure/
es wer mir gar ein hertes lebn/
solt ich jr alzeyt pfennig gebn/
Klopff wer do wöll/
ich armer gsel/
Solch bülschafft ist mir zu schwer/
mir wurt zu letzt mein peutel/ seckel ler.
Solt ich bey jr offt klopffen an/
ich wurt gar bald ein armer man/
klopff …
Ich wil nit vil mer nach jr fragen/
Sie thut mir stetz von geben sagen/
ist mir nit das ein hüpscher schwäck/
gib ich jr nit so wirt sie kranck/
klopff …
Bulschafft ist gleich heur als fert/
hat einer vil gelt so ist er werd.
English translation
Once upon a time ther was a young man
who broke up with his lover
You just can f**k whoever you will.
I'm not intrested in any adwenture
where I have to pay so much for love.
It would be a hard life
as I always had to give you money
So f**k whoever…
I poor guy!
Such loving is to difficult for me,
my wallet would soon be empthy.
Would I often make love to you
werry soon woud I be a poor man
f**k …
I will not ask for you any more
as you allways asking me for gifts
I don't think that's nice
and if I don't give you pretend to be sick.
f**k …
I poor guy!
Loving by hour is like any trade
who has money to pay gets to have it.
