Irving Berlin [Is 100 Yrs Old Today] [German translation]

I started those fillies at the pens this mornin'

You know the buckskin and the bay,

Before the wind started blowin' too hard

At the mid part of the day,

The driest spring in ninety-one years

The radio played on.

Said, Irving Berlin is hundred years old today

The wind's gone and blown my woman away

The Bay's a little sweetheart ... yeah she is

Pretty much like her mom,

The Buckskin's rank ... took me twenty minutes

Just to get the hobbles on,

She's smart and she's fast and she don't like people

She trembles as she stands.

And Irving Berlin is a hundred years old today

The wind's gone and blown my woman away.

(Chorus)

Good God almighty is it ever gonna rain?

Are you ever coming home!

I wonder if old Irving ever wrote a song

About blowed out country, a marriage gone wrong

And a cowboy on the telephone?

Happy birthday, Irving, God bless you

Are you glad just to be alive?

The hockey game's on tonight from Boston

I've got the Oilers in five,

Tomorrow I'm gonna try and fix that tractor

And try to keep my mind off you

And Irving Berlin is a hundred years old today

The wind's gone and blown my woman away

Irving Berlin is 100 years old today

The wind's gone and blown my woman away.
