In Zaire

Once there was a battle there
A hundred thousand people there
All those people gathered there
To see the rumble in the jungle there
In Zaire

The champion and the challenger
Came over from America
All the people came from far
To see the rumble in the jungle there
In Zaire

And who was the victor in the night?
No finer Kentucky boy, Ali, won the fight

In Zaire, in Zaire
In Zaire, in Zaire
In Zaire, in Zaire
In Zaire, in Zaire

And all the people chanted there
Seven rounds of torture there
One more round and Ali's there
There was great excitement everywhere
In Zaire

The lightning struck twice in the night
First in the ring and then after the fight

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
