Sewe Sakke Sout
Jay Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dis net ‘n krakie dis nie gebreek nie
Dis net ‘n buig wat ons reg kan kry
Dis nog nie stukkend dis net ‘n rukwind
Dit sal verdwyn dis nog nie verby

Sal eerder sukkel saam met jou
As wat ek jou nie vas kan hou nie
Sewe sakke sout sal ek dra
Saam met jou die foute weer maak
Beter word met jou hier langsaan my

En sewe sakke sout is swaar maar
Jy bly dit die moeitewerd maak
Alles wat ek ooit wou hê is jy
Sewe sakke sout is niks vir my
Dis niks vir my

Dis net ‘n hakplek ons kan dit deurwerk
Dis net ‘n merk wat ons skoon kan kry
Nog nie geval nie ek weet ons sal nie
Ek hou jou regop en jy vir my

Sal eerder sukkel saam met jou
As wat ek jou nie vas kan hou nie

Sewe sakke sout sal ek dra
Saam met jou die foute weer maak
Beter word met jou hier langsaan my

En sewe sakke sout is swaar maar
Jy bly dit die moeitewerd maak
Alles wat ek ooit wou hê is jy
Sewe sakke sout is niks vir my
Sewe sakke sout is niks vir my

Sewe sakke sout sal ek dra
Saam met jou die foute weer maak
Beter word met jou hier langsaan my (Langsaan my)

En sewe sakke sout is swaar maar
Jy bly dit die moeitewerd maak
Alles wat ek ooit wou hê is jy (Hê is jy)




Sewe sakke sout is niks vir my
Sewe sakke sout is niks vir my
