Under the Red Lantern of St. Pauli

"Under the Red Lantern of St. Pauli" (in German: "Unter der roten Laterne von St. Pauli") is a German tango song of the 1940s. Zarah Leander and Lale Andersen are amongst those who have recorded it. It refers to the St. Pauli district of Hamburg, the port city's red light district.

In a 1949 review Billboard magazine described it as "a mightily pleasant serenade".[1]
