Letra
When the sun shines
On the Gomos
And the bushveld's really hot
That's the time when
Me and barney
Smaaks to sit and have a dop
We are the Shumba drinkers
We drinks a dozen a day
We are the shumba drinkers
Why graft when we can play?
Ek se, ek se
Ek se, ek se!
In the morning
In the evening
Through the night time also too
There's a time when
My connections
Sits and takes a lekker brew!
One night me and all my chinas
Had a booz up in the pub
I parked a tiger in a passage
So they kicked me out the club
We are the Shumba drinkers
We drinks a dozen a day
We are the shumba drinkers
Why graft when we can play?
Ek se, ek se
Ek se, ek se!
We met a Pommie
In the army
All thin and white and pale
When we offered him chibuli
He said "no thanks i prefer ale!"
So if youre jolling
With your cherry
And your smaaks will go dont stop
Yes open up your coolbag
And say "oh good sir have a dop!"
We are the Shumba drinkers
We drinks a dozen a day
We are the shumba drinkers
Why graft when we can play?
Ek se, ek se
Ek se, ek se!
We are the Shumba drinkers
We drinks a dozen a day
We are the shumba drinkers
Why graft when we can play?
Ek se, ek se
Ek se, ek se!
Ek se, ek se
Ek se, ek se!
