Fürstenfeld
After all the day comes to an end and the night begins
Someone is singing "Blowin' In The Wind" in the Kärntner Street
He has on a green coat, he's standing there totally forlorn
And St.Stephen's(Cathedral) is watching down onto the poor Styrian boy
He'd like to try his luck in the big foreign city
He believed that his music would launch him onto the title page of the Rennbahnexpress (newspaper)
Now the dream is over, burst like soap bubbles, nothing's left
Beside some Schillings inside his guitar case
I've been already standing here for weeks,
I've been struggling here for weeks,
I play my guitar 'till my fingers are sore
And I even sing “Here comes the sun“
But it's enough to drive you mad,
No one likes to hear me sing
I've just about had really enough,
I wonder what I'm doing there
The wind's been blowing there the whole day,
Only construction sites everywhere, so that no one is able to find anything
Boiled sausages are terrible
And in the cafe you burn out yourself
[(Refrain:)]
I'd like to go home, I feel so lonely here
I don't need the high society, I'd like to go home to Fürstenfeld
They wrote in the newspaper:
There is a scene, you have to go there
Shall they write what they like,
I don't mind, the scene can go hang
So, yesterday I went to the U4,
A lass starts to talk to me
Black lips, green hair,
One can really get scared, that's true
[(Refrain:)]
I'd like to go home, I feel so lonely here
I don't need the high society, I'd like to go home to Fürstenfeld
I'll never play in Vienna again,
Vienna doesn't deserve me
At best, I'll play in Graz,
Sinalbelkirchen and Stinatz
I don't need no belt, I don't need no ring,
I'd like to go back behind the Semmering
I just need this little money
For the fare to Fürstenfeld
[(Refrain:)]
I'd like to go home, I feel so lonely here
I don't need the high society, I'd like to go home to Fürstenfeld
