I fell asleep next to the Tisza River.
Song
1. I fell asleep next to the Tisza River, ; Oh, but I had a sad dream. ; I had that one dream, ; Baby, I won't be yours. ; ; 2. I woke up from my dreams, ; Nine gendarmes stood in front of me. ; They ask me what my name is, ; Where is my travel document. ; ; 3. – Stop, gendarme, I'll show you, ; I'll unbutton my vest. ; I shot two, three in the head, ; This is my travel document. ; ; 4. My God, what should I do now? ; Either run or stop. ; If I run, they'll shoot me in the head, ; If I stop, they'll beat me with irons.
