Stanley En Die Koei

Kom ek vertel Jul van Stanley de Wit
Hy's Stoffel Berg se neef
En hy woon op Ladysmith
Een dag het hy en sy PA vroeg gery
Calitzdorp toe in n koei te gaan kry
Hulle ry met PA se bakkie
Oor die heksrivier se pas
Stanley vra sy PA hoe maak ons koeitjie vas.
Moet jou nie bekommer nie
Ek sal stadig ry
Gaan sit jy agter op
En keer as koei will gly
Tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
Een vir n geel pampoen
Twee vir n rooi Veldskoen
Hoe lekker kry ekke nou
Hulle laai toe die koei op
Huls reg vir die rit
Met sy arms op die reeling het ou Stanley gaan sit
Stanley ou seun
Luister nou mooi
Roep maar as sy rondspring
Sal ek die ankers gooi
Stanley sê ja nee dan maak ons maar so
Al is PA bietjie doof, sal PA my seker hoor
Oo tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
Een vir n geel pampoen
Twee vir n rooi Veldskoen
Hoe lekker kry ekke nou
Hulle's Calitzdorp uit
Terug oor die pas
Stadig om die draaie en koeitjie staan mooi vas
Maar teen die eerste stylte
Toe begin die pret
PA gooi die ratte en hy gee die bakkie vet
Stanley roep en skree
Hy skrik hom amper dood
Want toe hy vir hom weer kon kry sit koeitjie op sy skoot
Tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
Een vir n geel pampoen
Twee vir n rooi Veldskoen
Hoe lekker kry ekke nou
Ja dit is die storie
Van Stanley de Wit
En sy PA, en die koei
En die nagmerrie rit
Want dwars deur die berg
Tot in Ladysmith
Het die koei op sy skoot
Die hele pad bly sit.
Oo tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
Een vir n geel pampoen
Twee vir n rooi Veldskoen
Hoe lekker kry ekke nou
Om elke hoek
En Om elke draai
So tussen Stan se kniee het n eier rond geswaai
Oo tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
Een vir n geel pampoen
Twee vir n rooi Veldskoen
Hoe lekker kry ekke nou
Oo tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
Een vir n geel pampoen
Twee vir n rooi Veldskoen
Hoe lekker lieg ek nou!

Stanley and the Cow

Let me tell you about Stanley de Wit
He's Stoffel Berg's nephew
And he lives in Ladysmith
One day he and his dad drove early
To Calitzdorp to buy a cow
They drive in Dad's bakkie
Over the Hex River Pass
Stanley asks his dad how do we tie the cow down?
Don't you worry
I'll drive slowly
You go and sit at the back
And stop the cow from sliding
Tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
One for a yellow pumpkin
Two for a red veldskoen
How lovely I'm feeling now
They then load the cow
They're ready for the trip
With his arms on the railing old Stanley sat down
Stanley my boy
Listen carefully
Just shout if she jumps around
I'll throw the anchors
Stanley says yes no we'll do it this way
Even though Dad's a bit deaf, Dad will surely hear me
Oo tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
One for a yellow pumpkin
Two for a red veldskoen
How lovely I'm feeling now
They're out of Calitzdorp
Back over the pass
Slowly around the bends and the cow stays put nicely
But at the first straight
That's when the fun begins
Dad changes gear and gives the bakkie some gas
Stanley shouts and screams
He's almost scared to death
Because the next time he comes round the cow is sitting on his lap
Tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
One for a yellow pumpkin
Two for a red veldskoen
How lovely I'm feeling now
Yes this is the story
Of Stanley de Wit
And his dad, and the cow
And the nightmare trip
Because right through the mountain
All the way to Ladysmith
The cow on his lap
Stays sitting there the whole way
Oo tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
One for a yellow pumpkin
Two for a red veldskoen
How lovely I'm feeling now
Around every corner
And around every bend
So between Stan's knees an egg was rolling around
Oo tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
One for a yellow pumpkin
Two for a red veldskoen
How lovely I'm feeling now
Oo tsikkeling tsikkeling tsikkely
One for a yellow pumpkin
Two for a red veldskoen
How well I'm lying now!
