Kraftwerk - Autobahn Lyrics (in German):

Wir fahr'n fahr'n fahr'n auf der Autobahn

Vor uns liegt ein weites Tal
Die Sonne scheint mit Glitzerstrahl

Die Fahrbahn ist ein graues Band
Weisse Streifen, gruener Rand

Jetzt schalten wir ja das Radio an
Aus dem Lautsprecher klingt es dann:
Wir fah'rn auf der Autobahn...

Kraftwerk - Autobahn Lyrics (in English):

We are driving on the Autobahn

In front of us is a wide valley
The sun is shining with glittering rays

The driving strip is a grey track
White stripes, green edge

We are switching the radio on
From the speaker it sounds:

We are driving on the Autobahn

I always love to come back to this favourite of mine, Denise. Your "Autobahn"-adaption is "wunderbar"!

Sounds almost like the finale for The Musical Box(the song not the album) by Genesis. :)

Very nice. By playing the song on organ, the song's baroque chord progression comes through. Reminds me a bit of Van der Graf Generator or even Yes.
