Ich frag mich nach des Lebens Sinn
Dem einen oder dem andern
Man führte mich zum Weibe hin
Zum Alkohol, zum Wandern
Tralalalila tralalali, kyrie eleison
Die Weiber sind ja alle schlecht
Nur billige Krämerware
Zum Trösten bin ich grade recht
Da kommen sie in Scharen
Chorus
Der Alkohol, der hilft mir wohl
In diesen schweren Stunden
Und ist mir danach der Kopf so hohl
Beim Wandern da wird er gesunden
Chorus
So wandre ich jahraus, jahrein
Wohl auf dem Pfade der Jugend
Ich laß mich auf alle Laster ein
Und pfeife auf die Tugend
Chorus
Trad., 19. Jhd.
