Oh, oh sweet Africa
Oh, mother Africa
They love to play their drum song
Oh, oh their drum song, yeah

They play it with sweet melody
Even the birds are singing in the trees
I love to smoke my sensi
'Cause it makes I feel irie, oh, yeah
Oh well, oh, yeah

Oh, oh sweet Africa
Oh, mother Africa
They love to play their drum song
Oh well, oh their drum song, yeah

Under the banner of the red, gold and green
Where the living is cool and clean
I don't care about the rumours that they are spreading
I wanna see the face of the emperor
Oh, over in Africa, yeah

Oh, sweet, sweet Africa
Oh, mother Africa
They love to play their drum song
They love to play their drum song

They play it with sweet melody
Even the birds are singing in the trees
I love to smoke my sensi
'Cause it makes I feel irie in Africa
Oh, over in Africa, yeah

Oh, sweet, sweet Africa
Oh, mother Africa
They love to play their drum song
Oh, their drum song, yeah

Under the banner of the red, gold and green
Where the living is cool and clean in Africa
Oh, over in Africa, oh well

Oh, in Africa, over in Africa
They love to play their drum song
