Trip trip

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Reise Reise is a nautical wake-up call .

origin

The day on board a ship of the German Navy begins, as everywhere, with the wake-up call , also purren , which is officially initiated with the curling , with a whistle signal that is usually given five minutes before actually getting up with the boatswain's mate whistle . When curling is short, attractive whistling. The curling can take place, for example, with the following call:

  • One hand on the sack, the other on the sock; Soldier stay in bed, that was just the curling!

The actual wake-up, however, begins with a long whistle and the call Travel, travel, get up, lash hammocks everywhere ! The travel journey has its origin in the Low German rise rise , and also in English to rise (= [to] rise; to stand up) it has the same meaning.

The reputation was prolonged by an afterthought, of which countless variants have been handed down:

  • Trip trip. On every ship that steams and sails there is one to keep watch!
  • Travel travel get up! On every ship that steams and sails, there is someone who fucks the cleaning lady!
  • Trip trip. Release the husband, lower the pipes, and think no more of Hannelore.
  • Trip trip. Everyone nudges the next man, the last nudge himself.

  • Trip trip. And when Laboe comes into view ahead, the seaman checks his sack weight.
  • Trip trip. On every ship that steams and sails, there is someone who knows the washerwoman
  • Trip trip. Sailor, put your socks ( condom ) on, Laboe's laundress is here.
  • Trip trip. Sailor, put your shirt on, the washerwoman points clear from aft.
  • Trip trip. Come up you tired bodies the pier is full of naked women! Travel travel get up! The crew's answer: "He lied to us again, they're all dressed!"
  • Trip trip. Haven't you slept enough?
  • Trip trip. Sailor wake up, lock your hammock and bring it up, if you don't come at the right time, there will be three hours of detention!

One, two, three in pace, time is running out, we are running with it.

Create, work, get older, more sluggish, tired and also colder.
Until all of a sudden you realize that life is coming to an end '.

Therefore, man, be wise early! It's high time! Travel, travel!
