aankade ka dhandha ek din teji sau din manda
pyare chhod ye kam nahi to bolo ram
bolo ram bolo ram bolo ram
aankade ka dhandha ek din teji sau din manda
pyare chhod ye kam nahi to bolo ram
bolo ram bolo ram bolo ram


bure kam ka bura natija kah gaye gyani dhyani
are bhai kah gaye gyani dhyani
race ke ghode par aati hai pal bhar mast javani
race ke ghode par aati hai pal bhar mast javani
mindi ban jayega fanda babu mat kar aisa dhadha
pyare chhod ye kam nahi to bolo ram
bolo ram bolo ram bolo ram
aankade ka dhandha ek din teji sau din manda
pyare chhod ye kam nahi to bolo ram
bolo ram bolo ram bolo ram

sach bujurgo ne faramayaa rakh le isko dil me
are bhai rakh le isko dil me
jisne ki botal se yari band hua botal me
jisne ki botal se yari band hua botal me
sar par pade pulis ka danda babu mat kar aisa dhadhaa
pyare chhod ye kam nahi to bolo ram
bolo ram bolo ram bolo ram
aankade ka dhandha ek din teji sau din manda
pyare chhod ye kam nahi to bolo ram
bolo ram bolo ram bolo ram

jit gaya ye hath hai kale hara to muh kala
are bhai hara to muh kala
sattebaji me lakho ka nikla hai divala
sattebaji me lakho ka nikla hai divala
khana pade mang kar chanda babu mat kar aisa dhadhaa
pyare chhod ye kam nahi to bolo ram
bolo ram bolo ram bolo ram
aankade ka dhandha ek din teji sau din manda
pyare chhod ye kam nahi to bolo ram
bolo ram bolo ram bolo ram
