Für Andi von Wolle
Melodie 1: "Puff the magic dragon" von Peter, Paul and Mary
Melodie 2: "All through the grog", Trad.
Andi the magic drummer plays for you and me,
his sticks will roll from snare to tom and cymbals you will see.
Andi the magic drummer, you like with every ear,
his bassdrum is like thunder-roar and sometimes you will fear!

It’s all through the drums, the magic crashing drums,
all through for Hi-Hats and Tom-Toms.
He spent all his tin,
neither for whisky nor for gin,
a drummer’s paradise he has created.
He likes to play at night, without any light,
Kati says man, you are crazy.
You’d better spend your time with me,
It’s lovely you will see,
the paradise will come and be forever.
It’s all through the drums, the magic crashing drums,
all through for Hi-Hats and Tom-Toms.
He spent all his tin,
neither for whisky nor for gin,
a drummer’s paradise he has created.
