Oloololo

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)
