Paroles et traduction Lačni Franz - Stari vojak

Stari vojak

V ponedeljek plačo dobim
Nisem več pasji vojak
Cvenka kup v žep si spustim
Joj me, kako je težak!
Bogat tako pač ni vsak
Kot jaz, stari vojak!

V torek spet v mesto hitim
Pivske prijatle gostim
Najdem dekle za srce
Zvesto gori le za me
Ljubit tako ne zna vsak
Kot jaz, stari vojak!

V petek v mestu tičim
Piva zastonj si želim
Prijatli šli so na kant
Strežnik de: "Ven, buzerant!"
Vsekal sem kot bi ga vsak
Jaz, stari vojak

V nedeljo v parku sem spal
K maši hiti, kdor je vstal
Jaz trebuh prazen imam
Moliti lačen ne znam
V cerkvi ni zame klopi
Sem odpuščeni vojak

Rekruti, pamet v roke
Naj v vojsko vas ne dobe
Še zmerom je bolje umret
Kot v vojski dolgo živet
Predolgih trideset let
Kot jaz, stari vojak!

Old Soldier

On Monday I get my pay
I am no longer a dog soldier
I drop my heavy coin purse in my pocket
Oh dear, how heavy it is!
Surely not everyone is as rich
As I am, an old soldier!

On Tuesday I rush to the city
To host my drinking buddies
I find a girl for my heart
Who burns only for me
Surely not everyone can love like that
As I can, an old soldier!

On Friday I stay in the city
Longing for free beer
My friends have gone to the pub
The waiter says: "Out, you queer!"
I hit him like everyone would
I, an old soldier

On Sunday I slept in the park
Those who are up go to mass
I have an empty stomach
I can't pray when I'm hungry
There is no bench for me in church
I am a discharged soldier

Recruits, think twice
Don't let them get you into the army
It's better to die
Than to live long in the army
Thirty long years
Like I did, an old soldier!
