Proudly South African - Jeremy Taylor - Ag Pleez Deddy

[Hattinghs]

As my dad would say: Shut Up!

[findinaly]

Love this song. Reminds me of my teenage years. Drive ins where we could watch 3 movies for R5.00 per car. Making me homesick.

[VanHeerdens]

The best song ever!

God this brings back childhood memories, many thanks for uploading

[oliverDgiesler]

brings back many good childhood memories for growing up in South Africa

[kslbass]

N.........Balls - I remember this from my childhood - just shows hows fucked-up Colonialism and Apartheid are - no-one gave it a second thought - pure evil at work on the un-suspecting dumb masses.

[ligalosha]

nigger balls and licorice

[msjoburger1]

this reminds me of my childhood.....lol

[chrisguy1947]

I was based in Simonstown in the 60s on HMS Jaguar. This was played over the ships loudspeakers every time we entered or left harbour.

[mel1001]

I said that very simply because Jeremy Taylor is not a South African. He was born and brought up in Berkshire, England and went to South Africa as an adult to teach English in schools. He also wrote and sang folk songs and became famous in the stage show "Wait A Minim" around 1962 in which he sang his song Ag Pleeze Deddy. He later went back to the UK.

[fuckutube74]

THe last part of this song is missing

" Ag sies deddy if we can't kraak to bioscope

Or go off to Durban, life's a henguva bore

If you won't take us to the zoo

Then what the heck else can we do

But go on out and moer all the outjies next door "

[fuckutube74]

"Voetsek"

[mel1001]

Proudly South African?? Jeremy Taylor is about as South African as Paddy's pig.

[fuckutube74]

@mel1001 why do you say that?

[JeanFlanker]

Trots Afrikaans....en op ons aksent

[Saiaton]

Any recording of "De bleck peopole wanna go waait an de waait people wanna go bleck"? Same bloke, same era, same happy (?) memories from teenage school of these songs.

[Lefferable]

I miss my country

[fuckutube74]

@Lefferable im still here, it wont last much longer

[TheRandomBunnys]

[boobiieezmum]

Now I'm homesick !!

[boobiieezmum]

Brilliant!!! Now I'm homesick !!

[loekoemang]

@boobiieezmum jy kan die man uit die land haal maar nie die land uit die man nie,jy weet.

[boobiieezmum]

Brilliant!!! Now I'm homesick!

[chrisguy1947]

this was our song when i was staioned in Simonstown in the 60s. HMS Jaguar British ship in SA base. Takes me back.

[mikenorth483]

Dont ask me why but this became a cult song on BFBS (british forces) radio in Germany in the early 70`s

[peboy1974]

Last Verse

Ag pleez deddy if we cant go to bioskope,

we'll go off to durban lifes a heng of a bore

if you dont take us to the zoo

then what the heck else can we do

but go out and moere all the okies next door

[CarolinaMillin]

This is so funny! Lee sung this when she was a child and taken to the drive-in to watch movies in Kwazulu Natal. It is a persiflage on Afrikaans. You are not allowed to say nigger balls anymore as it is not done after Apartheid days. Nowadays, you call them black balls.

[pienaarful1]

Fantasties, part of my childhood, hooray for Jeremy Taylor and Eskimo Pie!

[THEmotherlicker]

wish i could speak and understand Afrikaans, i was born in South Africa and moved to London when i was 4

[ChrisJBrady]

What's the missing last verse???

[Beggletful]

@ChrisJBrady because the last line of that verse is: But go on out and moere all the oukies next door. Can't have a kiddies song finishing about killing people now can we?!

[TheNannylauren]

One of the best and funniest songs I grew up with. Thanks so much for posting this.

[vertxxgg]

ou liedjie ag lekker skolie nie

[bluexxg]

ek rememb dis 45rpm baie happie to hear it  again

[mankybub]

Had this on a 45 rpm record when a was a kid, knew all the words even the Afrikaans extra at the end. exellent song god bless Jeremy Taylor

[annie2shoes]

I still know all the words! hahaha! Great to hear this again! the drive- in, candy floss, ....haha!

[heywoodejerblowme]

Great song.I remember listening to it on LM radio at the base near Vic Falls,after weeks of floppey slotting.Great song to sing along to with a few cold Castles.

[disekjoumoer]

@heywoodejerblowme

Floppy slotting, two words I haven't heard in a long, long time. You could have said "popping niggers" but that would have gotten your post reported.......

[12Deathcon]

@heywoodejerblowme I remember back when i was younger my parents used to have this song on a LP vinyl.

[RHODESIA111]

@heywoodejerblowme - I did my floppy slotting up at Kariba ! oh to have that chance again !!

[TheCameryn]

@heywoodejerblowme if floppey slotting means to you what it does in Zim then you should be taken outside and beaten till you lose your fucking head then tossed into vic falls racist idiot piks like you is why there is this stereotype for all white africans and if you don't mean floppey slotting in the same way then sorry but choose a different fucking term

[MrGaptech]

@TheCameryn

You are right. The correct term is culling some terrs and downing some cole carsils

[ampersandtay]

Hey! Where's the last verse? :-) Thoroughly enjoyed that.
