[Verse:] I don't think you know much about us Except, of course, our famous Lichtenburg cheese I know very well you enjoy it And we would enjoy it too But we can't afford it for we must have money And so we send it to you But Lichtenburg won't be offended We'll manage to stay alive We're not very touchy This quaint little duchy That somehow seems to survive [Refrain:] Too small to be a city Too big to be a town Too poor to have an army And too easy to knock down Too little to sell across the seas Babies and cheese are our main industries Too slow to please the young folk Too fast to please the old Too many who have copper pennies Too few who have gold But somehow we manage to play the game While the other lands keep changing hands Old Lichtenburg stays the same
