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 #clairewaldoff #claire #waldoff #zille #vaterzille #evergreen #vintagestyle #retromusic #plattenspieler #vintagemusic #retro #retro #nostalgie #evergreenhits #evergreensongs #gramophone #oldies #oldsong #1929 #odeon #oldiesbutgoodies #plattenspieler #retro #78rpm #dual #records #1920s #records #grammophon #berlin #zille #kabarett #evergreen #evergreenhits #evergreensongs #pickup #vintagemusic #kleinkunst #cabaret #millieu #berlin #altberlin #hinterhof #neukölln #chanson #millieu #plattenspieler #turntable #deutschemusik #deutscherschlager #schlager #germanmusic #altberlin #arbeiter #kabarett #berliner
