Schwäbisches Volkslied
Language: Swabian (Schwäbisch)
Mei Mueter mag mi net, Und kein Schatz hann' i net, Ei warum schtärb i net, Was thur' i do? Geschtern ischt Kirchweih g'wä, Mi hot mer g'wis net g'seh, Denn mir ischt gar so weh, I tanz jo net. Laßt die drei Rösla steh', Die an dem Kreuzle blüh' Hent ihr des Mädle kennt, Des drunta leit?
