Lyrics
Søn så gik der 25 år
Fra du havde langt og krøllet hår
Fløjlstøj med krave, lillebitte mave
Jeg husker det som var det i går
Du sad her på knæet, under æbletræet
Du var en strik, Sonny Boy
Tonerne gjalded, når lyk’ligt du tralled
Fuld af musik, Sonny Boy
Åh jeg var stolt, søn
Du var jo så fin
Og når du holdt, søn
Din lille violin
Mod hagen
Lignede dit hoved'
En punkteret node
Lige på en prik, Sonny Boy
Så kom du i skole min knægt
Men dit hoved havde en defekt
Kun musik i pæren, brev med hjem fra læ'ren
At du sad og spillede fræk
Det gav mig et knæk, knægt
Mon det sår blev lægt, knægt
Da du blev stor, Sonny Boy
I timerne drev du, på skolemuren skrev du
Brandsjofle ord, Sonny Boy
Du snød til eksamen, og stjal en trompet
Du tævede damen, fordi hun havde set
Du stjal den
Du drak mine øller
Slog folk ned med køller
Hvor var du dog uartig, Sonny Boy
Tiden gik sin gang, Sonny Boy
Mest på restaurant, Sonny Boy
Hvor var du om natten, da du fyldte atten
Din gamle mor hun græd, Sonny Boy
Du føjted' og fjanted', uden at ha' en jante
Købte du bil, Sonny Boy
Så ud og køre, ud og forføre
Pigerne i skoven, Sonny Boy
Jeg ved det godt søn, der røg du cigaren
Helt ned til neglen, og så lavede du barn
I mine laksko som du havde stjålet
For din egen var ikke forsoldet
Du er en klovn, Sonny Boy
Men trods alt, blæs og gør lykke
Blæs mig et stykke
Tak ska' du ha', Sonny Boy
Lyrics translation
Son then 25 years passed
From you had long and curly hair
Velvet clothes with a collar, tiny tummy
I remember it like it was yesterday
You sat here on your knee, under the apple tree
You were a knit, Sonny Boy
The tones gjalded when happily you tralled
Full of music, Sonny Boy
Oh I was proud, son
You were so nice
And when you stayed, son
You little violin
To the chin
Looked like your head'
A punctured node
Right on, Sonny Boy
Then you came to school my boy
But your head had a defect
Only music in the light bulb, letter with home from the shelter
That you were playing dirty
It gave me a crack, kid
I wonder if that wound got healed, kid
When you grew up, Sonny Boy
In the hours you drifted, on the school wall you wrote
Brandsjofle words, Sonny Boy
You cheated on graduation and stole a trumpet
You beat the lady because she'd seen
You stole it
You drank my beers
Did people knock down with clubs
You were so naughty, Sonny Boy
Time went by, Sonny Boy
Mostly at the restaurant, Sonny Boy
Where Were you at night when you turned eighteen
Your old mother she cried, Sonny Boy
You added 'and fjanted', without having a jante
Did you buy a car, Sonny Boy
So out and drive, out and seduce
The girls in the woods, Sonny Boy
I know, Son, you smoked the cigar
Right down to the nail, and then you made child
In my lacquer shoes you stole
For your own was not forsoldet
You're a clown, Sonny Boy
But after all, blow and make happiness
Blow me a piece
Thank you, Sonny Boy
