Bremerhaven

Bremerhaven Bremerhaven, 1957 was a stunned town Illegal bars and whorehouses for the many sailors Who brought material to re- built the town It was a summer and in bombed out neighbourhoods There as accordion music And patriotic songs from the war were sung I was so young back then, and the whores spoilt me rotten So many ships coming in they were busy and Then there was the American base to service, but even Then, at my tender age, I could not stop thinking How efficient the Germans were they had lost but were Strangely happy re- building the lost years, the war Had cleaned their souls.
