potverdorie Oadrie verdorie
wat hest doe mie nou flikken doan
noa anderhaalf joaren verkeren
bist doe alweer mit n aander goan

ik was zo wies, o zo wies mit mien Oadrie
t was zo'n nuver wicht van oren en snoet
mor tou mor:

zai is nou weer mit t gat aan loop
vlam slagt heur tou t buusgat oet

nachten heb ik op die zitten wachten
bie dien moeke toes
moar doe zatst achter petat
in het Amsterdams Broodjeshoes

potverdorie Oadrie verdorie
nee doe stelst mie dik teleur
doe zeest: mit die wil ik geern verkeren
en nou gaaist der mit n aander vandeur

nou puut mien lekkere poedie puut
doe gafst mie veuls te vroug n schop
doar komst doe meschain ook nog wel es achter
en din schait die dit refrain weer deur de kop
