written by Björn Jakobsson for "the 1920s Berlin Project" and recorded once a very long time ago recorded by B. J. Blue. Well, hello, my name is Eberhardt Linden and I live just outside Berlin One day I met Wachtmeister Pinden he greeted me with a friendly grin I was on a late visit in the city and the policeman showed me to a bar and the barmaid was so god damned pretty she shone like a midnight star I wanted to give a good impression bought drinks for everybody who was there and I started my charm-a-barmaid-session wanted her to think I was a millionaire I got loads of indecent suggestions women and men asked me if I was alone but the barmaid didn't ask any questions she just spat in the glasses and yawned Ohhhh! What can a simple man like me do to get a smile from you? Ohhhh! All my attempts to charm my love - they all just fell through Ohhhh! Let me inside your heart, I'll do anything for you! Ohhh! wear a toga, Bavarian Yoga, just let me through! It's nice to get a drink but I'd rather get a wink from you ... only you I tipped her until I was broke as a church mouse but her face told me it wasn't enough and I felt more drunk than a drowned louse this would be tougher than tough I sent her roses and recited verses I sent her stroopwaffels and bubbling champagne She beat me up and filled me with curses Love can be filled with so much pain Ohhhh! What can a simple man like me do to get a smile from you? Ohhhh! All my attempts to charm my love - they all just fell through Ohhhh! Let me inside your heart, I'll do anything for you! Ohhh! wear a toga, Bavarian Yoga, just let me through! It's nice to get a drink but I'd rather get a wink from you ... only you © 2017 Treplektra Produktion
