In Zaire

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Once there was a battle there In Zaire, in Zaire A hundred thousand people there In Zaire, in Zaire All those people gathered there In Zaire, in Zaire To see the Rumble in the Jungle there (There, there) In Zaire [Verse 2] Came a man called Elijah In Zaire, in Zaire With him came the superstar In Zaire, in Zaire All those people came from far In Zaire, in Zaire To see the Rumble in the Jungle there (There, there) In Zaire [Bridge] And who was the victim in the night? Elijah Muhammad's boy Ali won the fight (Fight, fight) [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] All those people chanted there In Zaire, in Zaire Seven rounds of torture there In Zaire, in Zaire One more round and Ali's there In Zaire, in Zaire There was great excitement everywhere In Zaire [Verse 2] Came a man called Elijah In Zaire, in Zaire With him came the superstar In Zaire, in Zaire All those people came from far In Zaire, in Zaire To see the Rumble in the Jungle there (There, there) In Zaire [Bridge] And who was the victim in the night? Elijah Muhammad's boy Ali won the fight (Fight, fight) [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] The lightning struck twice in the night First in the ring and then after the fight (Fight, fight) [Outro] In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire, in Zaire In Zaire
