He-de-ho Songtext
von Manfred Krug

Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singin′ hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho

I've been down so low
Bottom looked like earth
What about that second chance?
Was I meant to be the curse?
Now, I offered all I got
And it ain′t no way to live
Being taken by the ones
Who got the least amount to give

Oh, hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singin' hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho


Once I met the devil
He was mighty slick
Tempted me with worldly girls
And said, "And you can take your pick"
But when he laid that paper on the end
And showed me where to sign
I said, "Thank you very kindly
But I'm afraid to do that line"

Oh, hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singin′ hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho
Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi
Gonna, gonna, gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singin′ hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho, woah, woah, woah, woah
Hi-de-ho, hi-de-hi
Gonna get me a piece of the sky
Gonna get me some of that old sweet roll
Singin' hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho
