Walkin' on the street on a lonely night
A girl standing there and she looked alright
I asked her if she wanna go out with me
She said: Why not, I wanna be pleased

I said, I love Renate, howdy howdy haha, howdy haha
I said, I love Renate, howdy howdy haha, howdy haha

I took her to the old cafe
A man sitting there, he was old and grey
He asked as if we wanted to be entertained
He grabbed his guitar and started to play

He sang, I love Renate, howdy howdy haha, howdy haha
He sang, I love Renate, howdy howdy haha, howdy haha

After bein' entertained he come over to me
He said: "Hello, amice, wanna tell you 'bout Mary?"
I said to him: "Oh, no no, no"
But deep in my heart it was 'Yessirree'

I said, I love Renate, howdy howdy haha, howdy haha
I said, I love Renate, howdy howdy haha, howdy haha

I said, I love Renate, howdy howdy haha, howdy haha
