Lyrics: | The lyrics are in Polish -- a quick summary of the meaning of the song in English would be: The story of heavy drinker who after his death doesn't want a regular funeral, but just want people to drink at his grave. Polish lyrics: Komu dzwonią temu dzwonią Mnie nie dzwoni żaden dzwon Bo takiemu pijakowi Jakie życie taki zgon Księdza do mnie nie wołajcie Niech nie robi zbędnych szop Tylko ty mi przyjacielu Spirytusem głowę skrop W piwnicy mnie pochowajcie W piwnicy mi kopcie grób I głowę mi obracajcie Tam gdzie jest od beczki szpunt W jedną rękę kielich dajcie W drugą rękę wina dzban I nade mną zaśpiewajcie Umarł pijak ale pan A po smierci na mym grobie Beczka wina będzie stać I gdy przyjdziesz się pomodlić Możesz kufel sobie wlać |
