Su lang die Leechter noch brenne (Radio Edit)

Sulang beim Lommi
Die Leechter noch brenne
Sulang 'ne Funk weiß
Wie Stippefott jeiht
Sulang dä Pitter noch schleiht
Der Speimanes noch speit
Jo, sulang stirv dä Kölsche nit us
Mer süht et en der Zeidung
Mer hürt et op der Stroß
Do leeven Jott, et Engk es noh
De Kölsche stirve us
Kein Bloskapell un och kein Flitsch
Mer han dä Brasel jroß
Statt Ostermann un Millowitsch
Hürt mer jetz "Atemlos"
Doch et es nit nor en Sproch
Et es nit nor Zohus
En Levvensaat
Die stirv su schnell nit us
Sulang beim Lommi
Die Leechter noch brenne
Sulang 'ne Funk weiß
Wie Stippefott jeiht
Sulang dä Pitter noch schleiht
Der Speimanes noch speit
Jo, sulang stirv dä Kölsche nit us
Mer hürt se nor noch selde
Uns Muttersproch es weg
Un süht och immer winniger
De Weetschaff op d'r Eck
Doch et jitt en noch, dä ahle Mann
Dä jet zo verzälle hät
D'röm hald de Schnüss un hür ens zo
Un zeig im jet Respek
Denn et nit nor en Sproch
Et es nit nor Zohus
En Levvensaat
Die stirv su schnell nit us
Sulang beim Lommi
Die Leechter noch brenne
Sulang 'ne Funk weiß
Wie Stippefott jeiht
Sulang dä Pitter noch schleiht
Der Speimanes noch speit
Jo, sulang stirv dä Kölsche nit us
Un et bliev, bliev, bliev hee, wie et wor
Denn mer sing, sing, singe och em nächste Johr
Jo, et bliev, bliev, bliev hee, wie et wor
Denn mer singe och em nächste Johr
Sulang beim Lommi
Die Leechter noch brenne
Sulang 'ne Funk weiß
Wie Stippefott jeiht
Sulang dä Pitter noch schleiht
Der Speimanes noch speit
Jo, sulang stirv dä Kölsche nit us
Sulang beim Lommi
Die Leechter noch brenne
Sulang 'ne Funk weiß
Wie Stippefott jeiht
Sulang dä Pitter noch schleiht
Der Speimanes noch speit
Jo, sulang stirv dä Kölsche nit us
Sulang beim Lommi
Die Leechter noch brenne
Sulang 'ne Funk weiß
Wie Stippefott jeiht
Sulang dä Pitter noch schleiht
Der Speimanes noch speit
Jo, sulang stirv dä Kölsche nit us
Jo, sulang stirv dä Kölsche nit us
Jo, sulang stirv dä Kölsche nit us

As Long as the Lights Are Still Burning (Radio Edit)

As long as the lights
Are still burning in the pub
As long as there's a spark
That catches fire
As long as the peeper
Still pisses
The Kölsche will never die
We see it in the newspaper
We hear it on the street
My God, the end is near
The Kölsche are dying out
No brass band and no party
We've got a big fire
Instead of Ostermann and Millowitsch
We hear "Breathless" now
But it's not just a language
It's not just at home
A way of life
That won't die out so quickly
As long as the lights
Are still burning in the pub
As long as there's a spark
That catches fire
As long as the peeper
Still pisses
The Kölsche will never die
You only hear them rarely now
Our mother tongue is gone
And you see it less and less
The pub on the corner
But there's still one left, the old man
He has something to tell
So hold your nose and listen
And show him some respect
Because it's not just a language
It's not just at home
A way of life
That won't die out so quickly
As long as the lights
Are still burning in the pub
As long as there's a spark
That catches fire
As long as the peeper
Still pisses
The Kölsche will never die
And it will stay, stay, stay here as it was
Because we will sing, sing, sing next year as well
Oh yes, it will stay, stay, stay here as it was
Because we will sing next year as well
As long as the lights
Are still burning in the pub
As long as there's a spark
That catches fire
As long as the peeper
Still pisses
The Kölsche will never die
As long as the lights
Are still burning in the pub
As long as there's a spark
That catches fire
As long as the peeper
Still pisses
The Kölsche will never die
As long as the lights
Are still burning in the pub
As long as there's a spark
That catches fire
As long as the peeper
Still pisses
The Kölsche will never die
Oh yes, the Kölsche will never die
Oh yes, the Kölsche will never die
