My buddy from South Africa plays this at his bar every night I'm there. I finally asked him the name so I have finally found it for my bar adventures ahead :)
Hehe.. Kaptein is kaptein in Norwegian! We love the dutch! Nederland er alltid fint og hyggelig! Jeg liker banjoen her de spiller BRA! Ek dink.. I think! :-D
Kaptein, Kaptein Klein donder in die donker oor die ou Karoo. Ek sien gesigte in 'n wolk daarbo. Benzos / Die Zol (depending on the version) was te sterk, ek het paddas gekry. Iemand gaan sien ek moet rigting kry. Kaptein, Kaptein, waarheen ry die trein? Duiwel fluister in my oor. Ek gaan die plot verloor. Kaptein, Kaptein, waarheen ry die trein? Donker maak my bang, ek wil liewer huis toe gaan. Jan, Jan, Jan, jy's 'n bul van 'n man. Help my, help my, die vrees het my gevang. Jy's 'n tier van 'n dier, my bra, my maat. Sweer jy sal my nooit agterlaat. Kaptein, Kaptein, waarheen ry die trein? Duiwel fluister in my oor. Hy sit hier op my spoor. Kaptein, Kaptein, waarheen ry die trein? Donker maak my bang, ek wil liewer huis toe gaan. Klein donder in die donker oor die Groot Rivier. Mamma, mamma, wanneer sien ek jou weer? Ek sien bloed in die wolke daar bo. Hierdie donker trein donder nêrens toe. Kaptein, Kaptein, waarheen ry die trein? Duiwel fluister in my oor. Ons gaan die spoor verloor. Kaptein, Kaptein, waarheen ry die trein? Donker maak my bang, ek wil liewer huis toe gaan. Kaptein, Kaptein, waarheen ry die trein? Duiwel fluister in my oor. Ons gaan die spoor verloor. Kaptein, Kaptein, waarheen ry die trein? Donker maak my bang, ek wil liewer huis toe gaan.
Nice, someone who acualy speaks Afrikaans :D My speakers are good. I found the word 'zol' in some lyrics on the internet. But, as I said, I keep hearing something else there. I'd love to know what he sings in that scentence. It comes after "Ek sien gezigte in 'n wolk daarbo" "??? is te sterk..." I hear something like "treinsel is te sterk". (or treinzol as I tought after reading the lyrics.)
@@juangoosen5419 That took you long enough! But thanks ;) Every so couple of years I checked to see if someone had posted a new answer. I can hear it, but then again we humans can hear a lot of misheard lyrics. Thematically it seems to make sense within the verse so I'm inclined to believe you. You don't happen to have an official source to lay definitive rest to this case? I searched just now, couldn't find one. If you or anyone else finds an official source for these lyrics I'll be very happy to hear about it. Even if it takes another decade.
i don't hear zol anywhere, are you sure your speakers aren't just messed up? btw "zol" is afrikaans slang for a joint. Also if you wanna learn afrikaans hit me up i would love to see if i can better my german or dutch, could be mutually beneficial..
