Relevant Verse:
Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins,
ob dun Mädel hast oder hast keins,
amüsierst du dich, denn das findet sich
auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins.
Wer noch niemals in lustiger Nacht
solchen Reeperbahnbummel gemacht,
ist ein armer Wicht, denn er kennt dich nicht,
mein St. Pauli, St. Pauli bei Nacht.
