I dreamed I saw Uli last night,
alive as you and me.
Says I: But Uli, you're ten years dead
I never died, said he,
I never died, said he.
And standing there as big as life
and smiling with his eyes.
Says he: What they can never kill
went on to roll his dice,
went on to roll his dice
From Wuppertal to Ravensburg,
on every gaming table,
Where playing men defend their rights,
it's there you'll find Uli,
it's there you'll find Uli!
