Come closer, Peter 
(Ja, der Westen schmeckt nach Gold, Süße) 
Come here, come, come here, Peter 
Listen, you're my husband now 
Peter, I know you don't love me 
We have to do this 

Today's my wedding, everybody's coming 
They can't wait to celebrate 
All my uncles, aunts and cousins 
Even the neighbours came to say 
"We're so happy that you marry 
It was time 'cause soon it's too late 
You getting older, you know we told ya 
You should have a baby before it's too late" 

Oh, leave me alone 
I'm so glad I can leave home 

Oh Peter, will you marry me ? 
Carry me away from the family 
It's killing me, can't stay another day 
Peter will you marry me ? 
Carry me away 
We can leave this place, you don't have to stay 
We can go our separate ways 

Das ist der Deal, du brauchst 'n Ehemann 
Ich brauch' 'ne Frau, die gut kochen und nähen kann 
Du lebst im Bauernhaus, Kuhstall nebenan 
Ich hol' dich raus, du fängst 'n neues Leben an 
Aus dem Wollrock ins Negligeé 
Ich schick' dich jeden Tag shoppen in dei'm neuen Carree 
Dein Vater kriegt 'n second hand neues Coupé 
Bei der Hochzeit glänzt er unter sei'm neuen Toupé 
Wir feiern mit Fleisch und Selbtsgebranntem 
Ich mache auf reich vor allen dein'n Verwandten 
Die Onkels und Tanten sind am saufen und zanken 
Und die Dorfmusikanten spielen auf und wir tanzen 
Schnapsleichen liegen auf dem Rasen 
Und die Blaskapelle ist zu blau zum Blasen 
Man soll immer gehen wenn's am Besten ist 
Mädchen, ich zeig' dir wo der goldene Westen ist 

Oh, let's get it on 
I'm so glad I can leave home 

Oh Peter, will you marry me ? 
Carry me away from the family 
It's killing me, can't stay another day 
Peter will you marry me ? 
Carry me away 
We can leave this place, you don't have to stay 
We can go our separate ways 

Everyone's .. too much, some are puking 
Even the ladies are drunk, they are singing 
The men are starting to fight or other dancing 
Hoow we gonna get to the night, just keep on drinking 

The neighbours say 
"We're so happy that you marry 
It was time 'cause soon it's too late 
You getting older, you know we told ya 
You should have a baby before it's too late" 

Oh, leave me alone 
I'm so glad I can leave home 

Oh Peter, will you marry me ? 
Carry me away from this family 
It's killing me, can't stay another day 
Peter will you marry me ? 
Carry me away 
We can leave this place, you don't have to stay 
We can go our separate ways 

Come and marry me 
Carry me away 
From this family 
It's killing me, can't stay another day 
Come and marry me 
Carry me away 
We can leave this place, you don't have to stay 
We can go our separate ways
