Текст и перевод песни Bläck Fööss - Ich han 'nen Deckel

Ich han 'nen Deckel

Ich han nen Deckel, do ston
Noch 10.80 dropp.
Dä litt en Kölle, en minger
Kneipp, beim Struhtse Jupp.
Ich han domols nit dran
Jedaach, moht noch fott en d'r
Selven Naach, un ich fuhr noh
Berlin met d'r Bahn, do fi ng ich
En neue Arbeit an.

Berlin es ne Wolke, su stund et
En d'r Zeidung dren.
He kann mer Levve, kumm her
Zu uns, Berlin es inn.
Am Daach verdeent mer vill
Mih als zuhuss, un des Naachs
Jon de Lampe niemols uss,
Dröm bin ich jetz he en
Dä Stadt, doch mir fällt
Irjendjet, ich weiss nit wat.

Ich hätt niemols, niemols
Jedaach, dat ich su oft an Kölle
Denke muss.

Ich han he Fruende un alles,
Et jeit mer och nit schläch,
ävver trotzdem do kummen ich
He nit zeräch.

Ich han nen Deckel, do ston
Noch 10.80 dropp.
Dä litt en Kölle, en minger
Kneipp, beim Struhtse Jupp.
Nächste Mond wenn ich Urlaub
Maach, will ich sinn dat ich 14
Daach fahre kann, et es zwar
Koot, doch ich han,'ne Jrund
Dat ich ne neue Deckel maache
Kann.

Ich hätt niemols, niemols
Jedaach...

Ich hätt niemols, niemols
Jedaach, datt ich Kölle su Jän
Maach. Denn Kölle dat es die
Stadt, wo ich jross jewode ben,
Un irjendwan muss ich
Dann, wenn ich kann,
Wieder hin.

I've Got a Tab

I've got a tab, babe, with
10.80 still on it.
It's in Cologne, at my local,
Struhtse Jupp's place, you know it.
Back then, I didn't think,
Just left it there that night,
Took the train to Berlin,
Started a new job, alright?
A fresh start, that's what I thought.

Berlin's a cloud, that's what
The papers all said.
You can live here, come on over,
Berlin's the place to be, they said.
I earn more here by day,
Than back home, and the nights,
The lights never go out, it's bright,
Living the dream in this city,
But something's missing, can't quite place it.
Something's not right, I can't erase it.

I never, ever would've
Thought I'd miss Cologne so much,
That I'd be thinking of it this much.

I've got friends here and all,
Things ain't so bad, that's true,
But still, I can't seem to
Settle down, not here, not for you.

I've got a tab, babe, with
10.80 still on it.
It's in Cologne, at my local,
Struhtse Jupp's place, you know it.
Next month when I get my leave,
Gonna make sure I get 14
Days to go back, it's short, I believe,
But I've got a reason, you see,
To start a new tab, just wait and see.
Just you and me.

I never, ever would've
Thought...

I never, ever would've
Thought I'd love Cologne so much.
Cologne, that's the city where I grew up,
And someday, I know I'll be back,
When I can,
Back in a stack.
Back on track.
