You drink coffee, I drink tea at home,
My boiled eggs for breakfast are soft.
I am just a little frisian boy,
And I live behind the dike.
Yes, East Frisia is a nice country,
Like Switzerland and Austria.
Just think of it without the Alps,
What is left, that is my dike.
(Refrain)
Oho, am a frisian boy,
Am a little frisian boy,
And I live behind the dike. (2x)
Comes a girl from Saxony,
Says:"Mr. Otto, I want to go to France."
Ay, I'll show you my Eiffel tower,*
It stands right behind the dike.
(Refrain)
All the girls come
To the little frisian town,
Because this trip is worth while.
Because there lives the one,
You already know who I mean,
Well, just say right away who lives there - Otto!
Von Jamaika kommt ein Reggaemädchen,
Joints rauchen, das mag sie,
Ich sagte: Marihuana ist nicht gut für dich,
Lass uns das Gras von unserem Deich rauchen.
