Текст и перевод песни Bok van Blerk - Datsun Bakkie

Datsun Bakkie

Ek was 'n wegloop hond
Tegnies ongesond
Taai groot geword
Ek het geeet met my hande
En ek kou oopmond
Jy was die dorps prinses
Dressed to impress
Al die mans wou jou he
Maar jy wou langs my kom le
Net hier langs my

Die padda soek sy prinses, wergeet van die res.

Dit was 'n Datsun bakkie en cheap hotels
Skaars geld gehad om huistoe te bel
Dit was vuurmaakhoud vir die ou dae
Ons het gelewe vir daai dae

Nou as die kleinkinders ons vra, se ons dit was die dae

Jy was so mooi vir my
Jou lyf so perdeby
Sou die nag om ry
Wat jy in my raak kon sien
Was 'n groot misterie

Dit was net ek en jy
Die dorp was net te klein
Ons moes groener wei
Weivelde kry
Ons was een ons was saam

Datsun Bakkie

I was a stray dog
Technically unhealthy
Grew up tough
I ate with my hands
And I chew with my mouth open
You were the town princess
Dressed to impress
All the men wanted you
But you wanted to come and lie down next to me
Right here next to me

The frog looks for his princess, forget about the rest.

It was a Datsun bakkie and cheap hotels
Barely had enough money to call home
It was setting fires for the old days
We lived for those days

Now when the grandchildren ask us, we say those were the days

You were so beautiful to me
Your body like a wasp
I would drive around at night
What you could see in me
Was a great mystery

It was just you and me
The town was just too small
We had to greener pastures
Find ourselves
We were one, we were together
