WATCH Guy Dancing to South Africa’s Unique Chicken Song

Here’s the perfect start to a working week – a little bit of dancing to singer and actor Robbie Wessels’ lekker – and very South African – chicken song! (Watch below, with lyrics like “Peri Peri for my Cherrie, mild for my child”.)

The video was uploaded by Nadine van Loggerenberg last week. She said: “As die hoender song jou oorvat Christo Marx my neef ek moes net lol.” (If the chicken song grabs you… Christo Marx, my nephew, I must just laugh.)

Chorus:
Mphe di hoenor
Mphe di Kentucky fry
Mphe di hoenor
Mphe di lemon en di hen
Mphe di hoenor
Mphe die Kentucky fry
ChickenLicken
Mphe di full chicken braai (x2)

I was walking down the street, looking for something to eat
Maybe a burger or a pizza or a pepper steak pie
As I walked around the corner something caught my eye
ChickenLicken and a Kentucky fry

Chorus

Peri Peri for my Cherrie, mild for my child
Maby a full chicken barrel for my big sister Cherald
And a quarter pound cheese for Adele my niece
And one rounder for me please

Chorus

Order one thirty-nine. Yes madam it’s mine
Full chicken barrel and a quarter pound cheese
And as I walked through the she said come again please
And a tsoshe said hey wena, freeze

Chorus

So the moral of the story if u want to go eat
Don’t go alone go with another guy
Cause you never know when you might walk by
ChickenLicken or a Kentucky fry

Chorus
