Cordula Grün English translation
von Josh.

Her name was Cordula Green
I saw her dancing
Then I asked her
If she'd like to have tea with me tomorrow
Or a fruit concentrate

"Whoever leaves first loses,"
She chanted in the evening
Our tea turned into beer
Two large schnapps, and she says
"Come home with me
My husband doesn't live here anymore anyway"

In the tram over the Ring
I stand up, and I sing
A love song to her
She cringes at kitschy poetry
With a refrain, mimimi
She likes dance music


Cordula Green, Cordula Green, Cordula Green
I got you, I got you, I got you
Cordula Green, you're so hard to understand
Cordula Green, I'd like to see you again
Cordula Green
I got you, I got you, I got you
I saw you dancing

It was clear to me the next day
I only want Cordula now
I am and remain an optimist
Even when she kept from me
That she is married
To a pediatrician

Her husband's name was Eberhard Green
He saw her dancing
Then he asked her
If she'd like to stand before the altar with him tomorrow
And she said yes

If I had known that
I would have planned differently
And looked away
I couldn't leave her
Started to spin as well
Because she dances so beautifully


Cordula Green, Cordula Green, Cordula Green
I got you, I got you, I got you
Cordula Green, you're so hard to understand
Cordula Green, I'd like to see you again
Cordula Green
I got you, I got you, I got you
I saw you dancing
I saw you dancing
I saw you dancing
I saw you dancing
