Schützenliesl
Heut ist Schützenfest im Goldnen Lamm,
Alle kommen z'amm, alle kommen z'amm.
Jeder Bua will heut' an Zwölfer ham,
Jeder nimmt sich z'amm, jeder nimmt sich z'amm.
Freibier kriagn die Schützen und die Madln einen Kuss.
Achtung, unser Bürgermeister tut den ersten Schuss!
Schützenliesl, dreimal hat's gekracht.
Schützenliesl, du hast mir das Glück gebracht.
Ja, Schützenliesl, dafür dank ich dir!
Jetzt bin ich der Schützenkönig und du bleibst bei mir.
(Jolla-lahidi-jolahidi-jolahidi)
(Jolla-lahidi-jolahidi-jolahidi)
Immer wenn du dich jetzt küssen lässt,
(Jolla-lahidi-jolahidi-jolahidi)
(Jolla-lahidi-jolahidi-jolahidi)
Denk ich an das Schützenfest.

Liesl, the Marksman's Girl
Everyone is gathered, everyone is gathered
Every lad wants a twelve3 today
Everyone gets ready, everyone gets ready
The marksmen all get free beer and every girl gets a kiss
Attention now, our mayor's going to fire the first shot!
Schützenliesl4, the gun has cracked three times
Schützenliesl, you brought me luck today
Yes, Schützenliesl, for this I thank you!
Now I am the Marksman King and you will stay with me
(Yol-la-lahidi-yolahidi-yolahidi)
(Yol-la-lahidi-yolahidi-yolahidi)
Every time you let me kiss you now
(Yol-la-lahidi-yolahidi-yolahidi)
(Yol-la-lahidi-yolahidi-yolahidi)
