Mathilda, Mathilda, Mathilda
she takes me money and runs Venezuela.
Everybody:
Mathilda, Mathilda, Mathilda
she takes me money and runs Venezuela.
Five hundred dollars friend I lost,
what made me sell me cat and horse.
don’t you know Mathilda, she takes me money and runs Venezuela.
Well the money was just beside me bed.
Stuck up in the pillow beneath me head.
don’t you know Mathilda, she takes me money and runs Venezuela.
Sing with me now:
Mathilda, Mathilda, Mathilda, she takes me money and runs Venezuela.
Everybody:
Mathilda, Mathilda, Mathilda, she takes me money and runs Venezuela.
Lalalalalalalalalalal…..
Es wird Nacht Senorita
und ich hab‘ kein Quartier
nimm‘ mich mit in dein Bettchen
ich will gar nichts von dir.
Etwas Liebe vielleicht,
ich bin müde vom Wandern
und ich bin außerdem
nicht so schlecht, wie die andern.
Lalalalalalalalalalal…..
Lalalalalalalalalalal…..
When I was a little baby
my mama would rock me in that cradle
in them old Cottonfields back home.
But when I became a bit older
my daddy would take me on his shoulder
in them old Cottonfields back home.
Cause when that cotton gets rutton
you can pick a cery much cotton
in them old Cottonfields back home.
Way down in the Louisiana
just about a mile from Texicana
in them old Cottonfields back home.
Lalalalalalalalalalal…..
Lalalalalalalalalalal…..
Lalalalalalalalalalal…..
