Lyrics

1. Ich hatt' einen Kameraden,
Einen bessern findst du nit.
Die Trommel schlug zum Streite,
Er ging an meiner Seite
/: In gleichem Schritt und Tritt. :/

2. Eine Kugel kam geflogen,
Gilt's mir oder gilt es dir?
Ihn hat es weggerissen,
Er liegt zu meinen Füssen,
/: Als wär's ein Stück von mir. :/

3. Will mir die Hand noch reichen,
Derweil ich eben lad.
„Kann dir die Hand nicht geben,
Bleib' du im ew'gen Leben
/: Mein guter Kamerad!“ :/
