(Steve and Marilyn Tune – The Girl that I Marry, 4 verses)
1. Our Mare’s get-ting mar-ried to quite a guy
He’s friend-ly and ea-sy as ap-ple pie
And Ste-phen is his name
and be-caause of his love she is one lu-cky dame
Theywere kids to-ge-ther at Loli-on-do
One fa-mous sa-fa-ri of fun and woe
Then, much ol-der, Ste-phen bold-er
In his arms he did gen-tly en-fold her
OH LEO RA-HA SA-NA
HA-WA, NA-PEN-DA-NA
HOO-RAY!!
2. Young la-dy came o-ver from Mo-shi town
She sat next to Steve, and she knocked him down
And Mar-lyn was her name
And ac-cor-ding to Steve he is quite glad she came
Her class sa-fa-ris from I.S.M.
Were just an ex-cuse to at-tract this gem
Once called “HO-NEY”, al-ways sun-ny
“Live on love” when they run out of mo-ney
Repeat chorus
3. Now Roy, and Bet-ty, and Eu-nie, and Dave
Have twice as much a-bout which to rave
Its ta-ken eight-een years
With some hop-ing and cop-ing, some laughs and some tears
Now folks you can call it a Maa-sai match
And Go-koo says “oiengoshoki ai WHAT A CATCH!”
Say the fa-thers, and the mo-thers,
Sis-ters un-cles and cou-sins and bro-thers
Repeat chorus
4. So off, you go-o, you hap-py pair
Through sea-sons a-chang-ing, some foul, some fair
Keep teamed up with the Lord
He will glue you to-ge-ther, keep hearts in ac-cord
He’ll help you dai-ly to fol-low the way
Of “JI-TE-GE-ME-A” and “HA-RAM-BEE”
Na kwa Ken-ya, Tan-za-ni-a,
N-chi ye-nu, u-mo-ja kwa ni-aaa
Repeat chorus.
