Ich hatte einen Kameraden
Einen bessern findst du nicht
Die Trommel schlug zum Streite
Er ging an meiner Seite
Im gleichen Schritt und Tritt
Eine Kugel kam geflogen
Gilt sie mir oder gilt sie dir?
Ihn hat es weggerissen
Er liegt zu meinen Füßen
Als wär's ein Stück von mir
Will mir die Hand noch reichen
Derweil ich eben lad
Kann dir die Hand nicht geben
Bleib du im ew'gen Leben
Mein guter Kamerad!
