Thread Name: German songs for singaround
Subject: RE: German songs for singaround
My father, a mining engineer, used to sing one that began:
Gluckauf, gluckauf,
Der Stieger kommt - -
Unfortunately, at the time (1950s)I didn't know enough German to make out more words. He called it a miner's drinking song, and it certainly went with a swing.
