   • 1910, “Et Stina muss ’ne Mann han”, Willi Ostermann (lyrics), Emil Palm (music)‎^[1]performed by Bläck Fööss, published 1985:

     Nemm nur, wat kütt, sät off dä Aal, un bes nit su schenant!
     Et bruch jo keine Jrav zo sinn, och keine Leutenant.
     Wann hä e Pössjen aan der Poss, e Fuhrparkadmiradiral,
     Un wann et och ene Schnieder es, dat bliev sich janz ejal!

     Just take whatever you get, the old man often says, and don't be so shy!
     It doesn't have to be an earl, nor a lieutenant.
     If he has an appointment with the post, if he's an admiral of the car park fleet.
     And even if he were a tailor, it really doesn't matter at all!
