Miskien dink jy dikmelk is 'n bietjie te suur
En dra jy dalk Diesel en Levi en Guess
Kerf jy jou biltong met 'n houtsteel-knipmes
En bestuur jy die trekker met jou Oakley sonbril
Maar weet jy nie Joubert het ons almal gekul
En dink jy ooit daaraan die rivier het gebloei
Passop, passop
Passop
Jy moet passop
Want die rooinekke hou jou dalk dop
Hulle hou jou dalk dop
En is jy dalk bang dat die khakies jou vang?
Weet jy nie lekker, is jy 'n groottrekker?
Ja ek is plesierig dit kan jy maar glo
Ek besluit wat ek goed dink en ek maak dan ook so (Ek maak dan ook so)
Ek maak dan ook so (Ek maak dan ook so)
En dink jy Eugene se perd het geweet?
Verstaan jy wat jy doen as jy dit seël met 'n eed?
Ruik McDonalds beter as braaivleis?
Weet jy presies, presies waar jou huis is?
Waar jou huis is
Ons almal soek na ons Diena
Maar ons Diena soek na haarself
Ons almal soek na ietsie
So jy moet passop, passop
Passop
Jy moet passop
Want die rooi nekke hou jou vir seker dop, hou vir jou dop (Rooinekke hou jou dop)
Hou vir jou dop
Hulle hou vir dop (Hou vir jou)
The lyrics of Hugo's song "Dalk 'n Boerseun" delve into the complexities of identity and societal expectations. The song speaks to the singer's exploration of their own identity as a boerseun (a country boy) in a world that may judge them based on their choices and interests. The singer questions whether they are more inclined towards sophistication (hooch) rather than beer, whether they find thick milk too sour, and whether they wear branded clothing such as Diesel, Levi, and Guess. The lyrics also highlight the rural lifestyle, such as using a wooden-knife to cut biltong and driving a tractor with Oakley sunglasses. However, the song challenges these stereotypes by suggesting that even though one may conform to certain expectations, it doesn't mean they are oblivious to the realities of life, like the deception of Joubert or the complexity of a blooming river.
The chorus warns the singer to be cautious and aware because people with different perspectives and judgments might be observing them. The mention of rooinekke (rednecks) adds a political and social aspect, where the singer might be judged or categorized based on their appearance and lifestyle. The song questions the fear of being caught or judged by khakies (authority figures) and emphasizes the importance of embracing individuality and making one's own decisions. It encourages the singer to not conform to societal expectations but to live life according to their own convictions.

Maar weet jy nie Joubert het ons almal gekul
But don't you know that Joubert fooled us all?
