Zwei Mädchenlieder für 1 Singstimme mit Pianoforte

by Eduard Walter

1. Mädchenwünsche  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
O fände für mich
Ein Bräutigam sich!
Wie schön [ist's nicht]1 da!
Man nennt uns Mama;
Da braucht man zum Nähen,
Zur Schul' nicht zu gehen;
Da kann man befehlen,
Hat Mägde, darf schmälen,
Man wählt sich die Kleider,
Nach Gusto den Schneider;
Da läßt man spazieren,
Auf Bälle sich führen,
Und fragt nicht erst lange
Papa und Mama.
