Schmunzeleien - Heiteres nach texten von Ringelnatz, Endrikat, Morgenstern und Busch

Song Cycle by Konrad Seckinger (1935 - 2015)

?. Die drei Spatzen  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
In einem leeren Haselstrauch
Da sitzen drei Spatzen, Bauch an Bauch.

Der Erich rechts und links der Franz
Und mitten drin der freche Hans.

Sie haben die Augen zu, ganz zu,
Und obendrüber da schneit es, hu!

Sie rücken zusammen dicht an dicht.
So warm wie der Hans hats niemand nicht.

Sie hören alle drei ihrer Herzlein Gepoch.
Und wenn sie nicht weg sind, so sitzen sie noch.
