Der Teufel hat den Schnaps gemacht [English translation]

As I was sitting in my pub

An girl came on, through in the door

She saw on me first, then my glass

And she sat down beside me

She says she is from the Salvation Army

And she could not understand me

Then she said she had seen many good men

Here(in the pub), they became the dog's food (died)*

The brandy is the devil's work

The reason, to destroy us

I hear already the laughing at the devil

When once we died in the brandy

She was so pious, she was so dear

And she liked me well

And I told her so kindly

That brandy does not hurt me

I've already emptied the next glass

She said, "I'm so sorry for you.

Some people who drink and drink like you

Those people will regret it later. "

The brandy is the devil's work

The reason, to destroy us

I hear already the laughing at the devil

When once we died in the brandy

The girl looked at me tenderly

So I drank quickly one more

Then I put my arm around her

And brought her home

She called her in her room

And then I learned it,

Those who drink too much, often unfortunately,

It's just only half a man

The brandy is the devil's work

The reason, to destroy us

I hear already the laughing at the devil

When once we died in the brandy

The brandy is the devil's work

The reason, to destroy us

I hear already the laughing at the devil

When once we died in the brandy
