[Instrumental lead-in] Guabi, Guabi, kuz-wan lay tomb yah-mee E-sah-lay gom-bi, shu-E-ahn tahn nah Guabi, Guabi, kuz-wan lay tomb yah-mee E-sah-lay gom-bi, shu-E-ahn tahn nah Knee-A zahn tain yah, la mah bahn zah Ee-zee wee-chee, lay bah nah-na Knee-A zahn tain yah, la mah bahn zah Ee-zee wee-chee, lay bah nah-na [Instrumental break] Repeat above verses [Instrumental break] Shu-E-ahn tahn nah NOTE: This is a phonetic rendition (sort of) of the original African dialect. My Theory: Better to be able to kinda pronounce it, than have it listed in African transliterated to English that you don't have a prayer of pronouncing unless you have a copy of the record to listen to, and practice from. This song was picked up by Jim Kweskin, and others (Arlo Guthrie, Patrick Sky, Ramblin' Jack Elliott, and who knows else) back in the 1960s from a recording done about 1950 by Hugh Tracey called "The Legendary George Sibanda: Zimbabwe 1948 '49 '50 '53 ". A YouTube version of this recording exists.
