Wo liyeza - wo tomorrow

Wo liyeza - it's coming down



You've got to rol with the punches and change with the times

Don't let today forget yesterday's smiles

Undermeath all some things never die

We've got to listen to the rhythm, keep moving you and I

Last time when we said hello

We spoke about these things

We listened to the radio

And heard the Gumba man sing

He said: "You've got to keep alive, don't get left behind

The Gumba Jive will take you to a better side"



CHORUS:

And so we'll dance the Gumbagumba Jive again, oh yea, one more time,

"You've got to keep alive - Gumbagumba!

Jive! Jive! You've got to move to keep alive,

You don't know where you might

Lay your head tonight -O-O-O-"



Now the days are hard and the nights are as lonely

I never see you, you never come around, you never phone me

So I listen to the rhythm of the Gumbagumba man

So I listen to the rhythm of the Gumbagumba man

Ngijayiva njengenkalakala nginikinik' ikhanda nje

I've got to keep alive, I won't get left behind

Gumba Jive will take me to a better side



CHORUS
