I'll haul you. Otherwise I'd never manage it alone, I'm a senior citizen. Jump, soldier boy, like a flea, hee hee hee! You'll never get out of there, heh heh heh! I've played a dirty trick on you, hew hew hew! I cheated the soldier by far, ha ha ha! They call me wicked witch, They call me old hag. But I'm not old at all, I've been like that Even in a diaper rag! Listen, little soldier, I'm not going to pull you out! May the toads eat you there! - What about our deal? - I've changed my mind. I don't want to divvy up the gold. Help me, the soldier's quick wit. Hold it! - You nasty old witch! - Not old, a senior citizen. Hand over my money. Or I'll cut off your head! No, I won't! - You won't? - I won't! Onward! Many thanks. I'm a good genie. Tremendously good. Life is much harder for good genies than for evil ones. That nasty witch turned me into a black cat. It was awful! Those years in captivity... Those fish heads, the boys throwing rocks at me... She didn't let me walk on the roofs even in the springtime! - Not even in spring? - Not even in spring! But you've won over her, the spell is broken. What can I do for you? Old chap... In that knapsack there's more gold than there're stars in the sky. You think that's all you're ever going to need? What else could I want, with all that money? I can get anything in the whole wide world! That's what they all think, but it's a big mistake. Hey, old man, what are you doing? I beg your pardon. Some habits stick. The bad ones stick, good ones don't. That's true. We had a soldier... He would sleep when standing guard around the clock. After he'd been discharged, he had to put a clock under his pillow to sleep better. You're making fun of me, and I'm much older than you are. Anyway, you've done a good deed, so I must reward you. - Take this flint and steel. - I've got plenty of matches! It's a little nothing, please take it. A souvenir. Over me lie A bright blue sky, Ahead is a long long way. Where I go I don't know, But the road will end, anyway! One-two, left! One-two, right! Friends, like that I would march on and on! And the jingle of coins in my pockets Make my life even better! Entrance to the kingdom. No trespassing! - What's that noise? A prince? - No, sir. I'm a soldier. - A soldier? - That's right. And those are all eligible princes. Even them we let in one at a time. Our Princess has to get married. This is of no interest to me. I was born a bachelor and I'll die a bachelor. In that case, get out of here! We don't need soldiers. This is a small kingdom, we have only generals in our army. I can live on my fortune. We know what a soldier's fortune's like. I'll show you. See that? - What about that? - That's a different story. - Have you got a visa? - No. Then everything's in order. Pass. It's none of your business! The best inn! Sorry, Mister Soldier. Even bayonets can't scare a soldier, and that was just a pin. Good work, tailors! For this, I'm going to shower you with gold. Why had we to wait till today to run into such a wonderful man like you? Soldiers get killed, saving us. Hurrah for the soldier! Quiet! Who are you? We two are your closest friends. Look, friends, what a good shot I am! It's not hard to be killed for a friend. It's much harder to find a friend worth getting killed Come here, soldier. Hurray for the soldier! lnnkeeper! More champagne! Hold it! Are you crazy? I won't let you through till you drink with us! A bucket for the horse, a mug for every passenger! Well, how do you like that! Get back! Make way! Make way? She must think she's a princess! Yes, she lS a Princess! So be quiet, you hear? Did you ever have your head cut off? Why is she hiding? Is she cross- or one-eyed? You fool! You idiot! You hooligan! A suitor to see Your Highness! Oh, Princess, news of your loveliness has reached my kingdom.
