Lyrics
One, two, three, four
– One, ababili, abathathu, abane
One, two
– One, ababili
It’s a motorcycle drive-by
– Yitha yitha-drive
Baby, dry your kind eyes
– Baby, dry amehlo akho enomusa
I think it’s about time we headed home
– Ngicabanga ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokuthi siye ekhaya
Walking on such tight rope with my damn high hopes
– Ukuhamba ngentambo enjalo friend kanye amathemba ami day high
Country boys don’t die alone
– Abafana basemawosi abafi bodwa
Reading poetry under shade trees
– Ukufunda izinkondlo ngaphansi kwezihlahla zomthunzi
That woman, she’s my baby
– Lentombi, ingumntanami
I will be in Richmond by tonight
– Ngizoba E Richmond tonight
With so much shame inside me
– Nginamahloni kakhulu ngaphakathi kimi
I just want to hide me
– Ngifuna ungifihlele nje
But they want to hear me sing my songs under lights
– Kodwa bafuna ukungizwa ngicula izingoma zami ngaphansi kwezibani
It’s a motorcycle drive-by
– Yitha yitha-drive
Baby, dry your kind eyes
– Baby, dry amehlo akho enomusa
I think it’s about time we headed home
– Ngicabanga ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokuthi siye ekhaya
Walking on such tight rope with my damn high hopes
– Ukuhamba ngentambo enjalo friend kanye amathemba ami day high
The country boys don’t die alone
– Abafana basemawosi abafi bodwa
Everyday’s so fleeting, and I have been trying to save it while I can
– Nsuku zonke kuyadlula, futhi bengilokhu ngizama ukusindisa it ngenkathi i can
The look on her face, all these hot humid days
– Bheka ubuso bakhe, zonke lezi zinsuku hot ezinomswakama
And the boys in my damn band
– Abafana bakamgqumeni band
It’s a motorcycle drive-by
– Yitha yitha-drive
Baby, dry your kind eyes
– Baby, dry amehlo akho enomusa
I think it’s about time we headed home
– Ngicabanga ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokuthi siye ekhaya
Walking on such tight rope with my damn high hopes
– Ukuhamba ngentambo enjalo friend kanye amathemba ami day high
Country boys don’t die alone
– Abafana basemawosi abafi bodwa
Reading poetry under shade trees
– Ukufunda izinkondlo ngaphansi kwezihlahla zomthunzi
That woman, she’s my baby
– Lentombi, ingumntanami
I will be in Richmond by tonight
– Ngizoba E Richmond tonight
With so much shame inside me
– Nginamahloni kakhulu ngaphakathi kimi
I just want to hide me
– Ngifuna ungifihlele nje
They want to hear me sing my songs under lights
– Bafuna ukungizwa ngicula izingoma zami ngaphansi kwezibani
