Текст и перевод песни Hannes Wader - Ol Man de wull riden

Ol Man de wull riden

Ol Man de wull rieden
Un harr gor keen Peerd
Ol Fru de nehm'n Teegenbuck
Sett den oln Man darup
Lustig reed he, ja lustig reed he

Ol Man de wull rieden
Un harr gor keen Saddel
Ol Fru de nehm'n Wichelblatt
Op den Buck klev se dat
Lustig reed he, ja lustig reed he

Ol Man de wull rieden
Un harr gor keen Toom
Ol Fru de nehm'n Hemdensom
Knütt de oln Man en Toom
Lustig reed he, ja lustig reed he

Ol Man de wull rieden
Un harr gor keen Hot
Ol Fru de nehm'n Bodderpott
Stülpt em den Man op'n Kopp
Lustig reed he, ja lustig reed he

Ol Man de wull rieden
Und harr gor keen Pietsch
Ol Fru de nehm'n Bessenries
Mak den oln Man en Pietsch
Lustig reed he, ja lustig reed he

Ol Man de wull rieden
Und harr gor keen Sporn
Ol Fru de nehm'n Wicheldorn
Mak den oln Man en Sporn
Lustig reed he, ja lustig reed he

Ol Man de wull riden
Und wüß nich den Weg
Ol Fru ne nehm 'n Tüddelband
Tüddel den Weg henlank
Lustig reed he, ja lustig reed he
Ja lustig reed he
Ja lustig reed he

Old Man Wanted to Ride

Old Man wanted to ride
And had no horse at all
Old Lady took a billy goat
Put the Old Man up
He rode funnily, yes he rode funnily

Old Man wanted to ride
And had no saddle at all
Old Lady took a dock leaf
And put it on his back
He rode funnily, yes he rode funnily

Old Man wanted to ride
And had no reins at all
Old Lady took a shirt-tail
Made a rein for the Old Man
He rode funnily, yes he rode funnily

Old Man wanted to ride
And had no hat at all
Old Lady took a butter-pot
Put it on the Man's head
He rode funnily, yes he rode funnily

Old Man wanted to ride
And had no whip at all
Old Lady took a broom-stick
Made a whip for the Old Man
He rode funnily, yes he rode funnily

Old Man wanted to ride
And had no spurs at all
Old Lady took some hawthorn sticks
Made some spurs for the Old Man
He rode funnily, yes he rode funnily

Old Man wanted to ride
And didn't know the way
Old Lady took a ball of string
Rolled the threads along the path
He rode funnily, yes he rode funnily
Yes he rode funnily
Yes he rode funnily
