English Translation:
Do you all remember Barbara
And her legendary rhubarb bar?
Yes, in Barbara's rhubarb bar
The rhubarb was never scarce back then
Because in Barbara's rhubarb bar, as you know
There was a rhubarb cake that you don't easily forget
It had been very popular for years among three barbarians
Because barbarians know what rhubarb is
Barbarians know what rhubarb is
K-, k-, know what rhubarb is
Th-, th-, then there was also the barbarian beard barber
The barbarians were almost here every evening with him
And always drank with him after work
Rhubarb-Barbara-Bar-Barbarian-Beard-Barber-Beer
And since the beard barber was really here every evening
Barbara needed an additional bartender for the rhubarb bar beer bar Soon
So she doesn't work alone behind the bar
And so the next day Bärbel suddenly stood behind the bar
She was smart, charming, and very well-read
It didn't take long for everyone in the rhubarb bar to be captivated
As soon as they saw this beautiful being standing behind the bar
The beard barber called out: Bärbel
You are the woman for whom I would sell all my belongings
I wish you were my rhubarb-barbara-bar- Barbarian-beard-barber-beer-bar-Bärbel
The three barbarians were also heavily courting
They would die for a smile from Bärbel
But all their courting was ignored by Bärbel
Because Bärbel was mainly interested in Barbara
And there was clear sympathy on both sides
Apparently, besides Bärbel, Barbara was also bi
A rainbow appeared in the brightest colors When Barbara and Bärbel said 'I do'
The party then took place in the rhubarb bar (Of course!)
And was one of a kind
The beard barber was there, the barbarians were there
And of course, there was plenty of rhubarb cake
The three barbarians served alongside
A rhubarb-barbara-barbarian-barbecue
And later for the dance, the not at all dull
Baden-Baden rhubarb bar ballad bards played
So they both said yes to each other
Rhubarb-Barbara and her Bärbel - hooray!
And soon Master Stork swiftly arrived
And brought a child to the rhubarb bar
Apart from Bärbel and Barbara
Of course, the beard barber and the
barbarians were there for the baby
They were all like a huge family
And they named the child Emily (Lovely!)
Will it later take over the barbershop
Or stand behind the bar at Barbara's?
Maybe!
After all, it was the rhubarb-barbara-bar-barbarian-beard-barber-beer-bar-baby
