Ach God, ach God, die Jan
Het kwam er toch nog van
Hij is nog in Den Haag
Een hele grote man
Eerst was 't een jongensdroom
Nou is 'ie econoom
Maar jongensdroom en econoom
Daar komen brokken van
Mooie Jan, mooie Jan
Hij is niet vies van Dries
Het is een roze-rooie Jan
Mensen opgelet
Er is nog een kabinet
Ze hebben Jan Terlouw
Hoog op de bok gezet
Jawel, jawel, jawel
Hij voert een ragfijn spel
Als postiljon d'amour
Van de Esso en de Shell
Mooie Jan, mooie Jan
Hij is niet vies van Dries
Het is een roze-rooie Jan
Zo voelt Jan zich nou: In de steek gelaten.
Jan Terlouw liep met het vaandel rechtdoor en de partij sloeg linksaf.
En er verscheen een nieuw Engelenkopje: Edje.
