I und mein junges Weib

Language: Swabian (Schwäbisch) 

I und mein junges Weib
Können schön tanze,
Sie mit dem Bettelsack, 
I mit dem Ranze,
Schenkt mir a mal bayrisch ein,
Woll’n a mal lustig sein, 
Bayrisch, bayrisch, bayrisch muss sein

Des Schulzens Mägdala
Thut mir gefalla
Sie heisset Gretala,
Liebt mich vor alla.
Schenkt mir a mal…

Hinterm Dorf, in den Sand,
Bauern thun dröscha.
Mädel hats Herz verbrannt,
Henker mags löscha.
Schenkt mir a mal…

Schlächter gehn auf das Land,
Wollen was kaufa,
Haben ’n Stock in der Hand,
Müssen brav laufa.
Schenkt mir a mal…

Mein Weib geht in die Stadt,
I bleib daraussa,
Was sie erbettelt hat,
Thu i versaufa.
Schenkt mir a mal…
