Janosh had a big white poodle as his only friend
Nobody knew Janosh without poodle in his hand
Early in the morning Janosh went to work the fields
Early in the morning poodle followed on his heels

Shalalalala, lalalalala
Poodle was his friend
Shalalalala, lalalalala
Till the bitter end

Janosh was the cutest fellow of the village town
Soon he had no problems getting girls all around
Anoushka was a pretty chick that loved him oh so much
But how she hate that big white poodle that cried at every touch

Shalalalala, lalalalala
Poodle was his friend
Shalalalala, lalalalala
Till the bitter end, hey

Shalalalala, lalalalala
Poodle was his friend
Shalalalala, lalalalala
Till the bitter end

At the age of forty-four he saw that he'd done wrong
Big white poodle died away while he was still so strong
In a hurry he went back and dated every maid
But they answered little Janosh: "Now it is too late"

Shalalalala, lalalalala
Poodle was his friend
Shalalalala, lalalalala
Till the bitter end
Hoi, hoi, hoi

Shalalalala, lalalalala
Poodle was his friend
Shalalalala, lalalalala
Till the bitter end
