NEW APPLES

Meneer sits in the mining house
counting out his gold
Boesman and Lena on their way to Mafeking
In Gauteng it flows at Blood River there is no blood
Tokoloshe drives past in his Chevrolet

And the Ha Die Da's sing goodbye Dolly Grey
on the Cape Flats someone is lost

He cut off his thumb with a knife
on the day that they found the Gold
Anthills and thorn trees all the way to the border
We meet in ten years again when it will all be over
give my love to the mountain

And the wild doves on the tin roofs
and the way you walk in the sunshine

Meneer walks out to the garden
Where the yellow apples fall
On the sea the ship turns back but he does not notice
The apples of his soul and he can never eat them
Go east go west go south to find the land of the Turks

and the wild doves on the tin roofs
and the way you walk in the sunshine
and the wild doves on the tin roofs and the way you walk in the sunshine
