from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Die Spinnerin
Language: Swabian (Schwäbisch) 
Spinn, spinn, mein liebs Nanerl,
i kauf dir neue Schuh'.
Ja, ja, meine liebe Mutter,
schöne Schnälle au dazu!
I kann jo net spinne,
mir tun meine Finger so weh, so weh,
meine Fingerle so weh!

Spinn, spinn, mein liebs Nanerl,
i kauf dir neue Strümpf'.
Ja, ja, meine liebe Mutter,
schöne Zwickele au drinn.
I kann jo net spinne,
mir tun meine Finger so weh, so weh,
meine Fingerle so weh!

Spinn, spinn, mein liebs Nanerl,
i kauf dir en schöne Mann.
Ei ja, meine liebe Mutter,
Schon streng i mi an.
I kann jo schon spinne,
mir tun meine Finger nimme weh, nimme weh,
meine Fingerle nimme weh!
