Found on human nature.
Lala salama
To the masai mara
And asante sana
To kichwa tembo
I'm going oloololo
Back to the world where i'm from
Soon i'll be flying solo
On a heading that follows the sun
Oloololo, oloololo, 'loololo
'cause i've been down from nairobi
Southeast of kisumu
To the waiting savanna
Like a place that i once knew
And the river was flowing
While the crocodile baked in the sun
With the elephant knowing
That a change had already begun
Oloololo, oloololo, 'loololo
Oloololo, oloololo
(lala salama) oloololo (to the masai mara)
(and asante sana) oloololo (to kichwa tembo)
