Strum

D-DU-UDU

Outside the barracks, by the corner light

I'll always stand and wait for you at night

We will create a world for two

I'll wait for you the whole night through

For you, Lili Marlene

Bugler tonight don't play the call to arms

I want another evening with her charms

Then we will say goodbye and part

I'll always keep you in my heart

With me, Lili Marlene

Give me a rose to show how much you care

Tie to the stem a lock of golden hair

Surely tomorrow, you'll feel blue

But then will come a love that's new

For you, Lili Marlene

When we are marching in the mud and cold

And when my pack seems more than I can hold

My love for you renews my might

I'm warm again, my pack is light

It's you, Lili Marlene
