Sun still fighting
Through smoke and steam
Life here's better
Than you could ever dream
Life here's better
Life here's better
I know you're no beauty
For work's lined your face
You don't like wearing make-up
You're an honest place
Where the human race
Isn't always in competition
Your heartbeat's of metal
It hammers out through the night
The foundation of prosperity
You're a working town
Don't let them put you down
You bloom in your own way
Bochum I call you home
Bochum you're in my bones
Oh, glück auf - my home
You're not a neon playground
There are no fashion shows here
You're not a postcard for the tourists
Here it's the heart that counts
Not the size of bank accounts
You've never sold yourself away
Bochum I call you home
Bochum you're in my bones
Oh, glück auf - my home
May your smile shine on forever
Through the cold dust it gleams
Be proud of your tiny gardens
Proud of your traffic lights
Proud of your chimney-stacks
Proud of your football team!
Bochum I call you home
Bochum you're in my bones
Oh, glück auf - my home
Oh, glück auf
Oh, glück auf
Oh, glück auf - my home
