Well I'm on my way to bamako
A place I always wanted to go
I'm on my way to bamako
To see what I can see
Got a good friend there, habib koite
A good musician, by the way
Got a good friend there, habib koite
Gonna meet his family
It's my first trip to west africa
And I'm pretty sure
In some kind of way
It's gonna feel like coming home
Well I'm on my way to bamako
Gonna leave behind the ice and snow
I'm on my way to bamako
To see what I can see
Gonna turn my face up to the sun
Close my eyes and thank the one
Turn my eyes up to the sun
That shines in bamako
It's my first trip...
To see what I can see
