Goue Afrikaanse Medley
Nicholis Louw Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tennisballe, krieketballe, snoekerballe as jy wil
Tennisballe, krieketballe, snoekerballe as jy wil

Daar is 'n lelike ding wat kopwys in Parys
Iets heeltemal anders as 'n bike race
Of 'n kopluis of by bachelor parties muis wys
Op 'n barstoel by 'n braai sit 'n ou en eet sy slaai
Asseblief my lief sΓͺ ja kan ek leeuloop?
Die ouens het mooi gevra

Nou as jy weet wat die leeuloop is
En jy weet waar die leeu moet rus
Maak jou broek en jou belt los geleidelik
Die leeuloop is baie verleidelik
En ek gaan hom nou stap vir stap verduidelik

Knyp twee balle vas tussen jou bene
Met jou hande en jou knieΓ« op die stene
Trek af jou broek en brul as jy wil
Solank jy net leeuloop

Tennisballe, krieketballe, snoekerballe as jy wil
Tennisballe, krieketballe, snoekerballe as jy wil

Hy’s die brand in brannewyn
Die geraas in Stilfontein
Hy’s die blaf in elke brak
Hy’s die slym in elke slak

Braai sy wors onder die brug
Iron Maiden op sy rug
Rugby rewwe maak hom suur
Tune sy engin met plesier

Hy vry na Stukkie van der Merwe
Sy bly daar anderkant die blouberge
Cane en cola by die braai
Al haar poedels is ge-dye en haar toonnaels groen geverwe

Hy vry na Stukkie van der Merwe
Sy bly daar anderkant die blouberge
Met haar mentholsigaret opgesoefte hemelbed
Bly sy alles wat hy het (Bly sy alles wat hy het)

Brannas in die hanne as hy engines opkou
Draai sy das om sy kop as sy beste pel trou
Saterdag middag span hy uit by die dam
En hy drink uit sy boot op sy favourite span

Jip hy vry na Stukkie van der Merwe
Sy bly daar anderkant die blouberge
Cane en cola by die braai
Al haar poedels is ge-dye en haar toonnaels groen geverwe

Hy vry na Stukkie van der Merwe
Sy bly daar anderkant die blouberge
Met haar mentholsigaret opgesoefte hemelbed
Bly sy alles wat hy het (Bly sy alles wat hy het)

O liewe Lulu
Sal jy vanaand by my kom doedoe?
Die liefde brand hier in my hart soos voodoo
My drome lΓͺ aan skerwe liewe Lulu

O ek kry hoendervleis as jy die dansbaan betree
Ek fantaseer oor hoe jy alles gee
En as jy uithaal en daai lyf so lekker swaai dan word ek mal

Sonder jou is die dansbaan verlate my nooi
My hele lyf bewe want mooi bly maar mooi
My hart gaan op loop as jou oΓ« en jou smile spot met my

O liewe Lulu
Sal jy vanaand by my kom doedoe
Die liefde brand hier in my hart soos voodoo
My drome lΓͺ aan skerwe liewe Lulu

O liewe Lulu
Jy’s die prinses van die nag liewe Lulu
Jy’t my in jou mag liewe Lulu
My drome in jou siel verdrink

O Boesmanland vat my hand
Lei my oor die rand se kant
As jy vir my kan sΓͺ waar die Boesmanland lΓͺ
Boesmanland vat my hand

Maar ou Boesmanland vat my hand
Lei my oor die rand se kant
As jy vir my kan sΓͺ waar die Boesmanland lΓͺ
Boesmanland vat my hand

O bokkie vat jou sloop
O ja bokkie vat jou sloop
Ja bokkie vat jou sloop
Dat ons Bitterfontein toe loop

Met my vaal ou houtkitaar
O my vaal ou houtkitaar
Ek speel dat dit bars
Maar ek breek mos nie 'n snaar

Maar ou Boesmanland vat my hand
Lei my oor die Rand se kant
As jy vir my kan sΓͺ waar die Boesmanland lΓͺ
Boesmanland vat my hand
Maar ou Boesmanland vat my hand
Ja die Boesmanland vat my hand

Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan (Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan)
Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan (Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan)
Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan ou Jan van Ting
Ou dierbare ding (Dierbare ding)

Kom hang aan my (Kom hang aan my)
Kom hang aan my (Kom hang aan my)
Kom hang aan my
Soos die kaap se heuningby (Heuningby)

Ek het jou lief (Ek het jou lief)
Ja ek het jou lief (Ek het jou lief)
Ja ek het jou lief
Soos pap en boeliebeef (Boeliebeef)

Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan (Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan)
Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan (Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan)




Dis β€˜n lekker ou Jan ou Jan van Ting
Ou dierbare ding
