~ Drah ma um und drah' ma auf ~
 
You might as well have fun in this world because, what else can you do with the money, seems to be the theme on this etched stein marked "3013 12 Germany", ca. 1900. The verse is written in Bayrisch (Bavarian dialect).
 
Drah ma um und drah' ma auf,
es liegt nix drah',
weil ma's Geld auf dera Welt
nit fressen ka!
Turn me this way, turn me that,
it doesn't matter,
because in this world,
you can't eat the money!
