Interpretation
The lyrics of the song 'Et jitt kein Wood' by
Cat Ballou are about the strong connection to the hometown of Cologne. The singer is a proud local patriot and waves his flag in the colors red and white. While other people want to go to Berlin or to the big world, he can't leave Cologne. He can't exactly say what keeps him here, but there is no word that could describe how he feels when he thinks of Cologne and his home.
The singer still hasn't had enough of Cologne songs and the hustle and bustle on the Rhine. He still hasn't seen enough of the houses and the cathedral. However, he can't exactly say what keeps him here. There is no word that could describe how he feels when he thinks of Cologne and his home.
There are a thousand beautiful songs in which there is truth. But it goes on infinitely, because it has never been spoken. There is no word that could describe how he feels when he thinks of Cologne and his home.
The lyrics of the song 'Et jitt kein Wood' express the deep connection and love for the hometown of Cologne. The home is portrayed as something indescribable and unique, that can only be felt. The text creates a feeling of identification and pride in one's own city.
