Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Een dagje zonneschijn
Is een vrolijk refrein
Dat zingt van hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Ik wandel zonder doel
Rustig door 't gewoel
Op zoek naar hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Zij is zo fris als de mei
En zij heeft hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Ze kijkt me aan en lacht
Welbewust van haar macht
En van haar hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Ik wil haar volgen maar
Op de hoek zie ik daar
Een and're hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Nu sta ik voor een probleem
Want kiezen kan ik maar een
Van beiden hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Ik weet niet wat beslissen
Want 'k wil me kans niet missen
Maar ik mag me niet vergissen
Helaas ze zijn weer weggegaan
En ik blijf daar maar staan
Met al m'n hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Maar daarom niet getreurd
Liever verder gespeurd
Naar nieuwe hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Een meisje loopt me voorbij
Zij is zo fris als de mei
En zij heeft hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Ze zijn weer weggegaan
En ik blijf daar maar staan
Met al m'n hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Maar daarom niet getreurd
Liever verder gespeurd
Naar nieuwe hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Een meisje loopt me voorbij
Zij is zo fris als de mei
En zij heeft hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
En in de zonneschijn
Klinkt opnieuw een refrein
Ik zing van hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
En in de zonneschijn
Klinkt opnieuw een refrein
Ik zing van hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
