Claire Waldoff: “Warum soll er nich mit ihr“ (Odeon 1929)
Played on my La Voix de son Maitre record player model 250 from 1936
Text translation:
Miezen's mother has something against Miezen's boyfriend
It seems to me
Everything that the two of them want,
They shouldn't
Because of the old woman
Well, that's outrageous
Because that would spoil the friendship
And yet, oh Lord Jesus, they don't mean anything bad
What all the others can do
The old woman doesn't want to grant them
Well, that's terrible
Isn't it?
refr.:
Why shouldn't he stand with her at the door?
Why shouldn't he go to the pastry shop with her?
Why shouldn't he go on a moonlight cruise on the river Spree with her when the spring breeze is gentle?
Why shouldn't he risk a joke with her?
Why shouldn't he feel love with her?
Why shouldn't he be with her, why shouldn't he be with her?
Yes, I don't know - the mother isn't for it
The other evening it got too crazy for Mieze
You can see! She got up on her feet
Quietly and gently
Before mother knew it
And she whistled in front of Orje's door
He was with her like lightning
And the moonlight shone so brightly
Well, thank you!
Orje is really cheeky
And the kitty is no better
But nothing happened
chorus
After all, every girl needs something for the heart
No kidding!
And mothers always think much worse
They have no idea
What they used to be like
We'll never find out
They certainly weren't nuns
No, that's not the case!
If they hadn't found a man
The world would have disappeared long ago
And love, oh dear
Would be a thing of the past
chorus
