[Intro of Live 1966]
Khawuleza

Khawuleza is a South African song
It comes from the townships
Locations, reservations, whichever
Near the cities of South Africa
Where all the black South Africans live
The children shout from the streets
As they see police cars coming to raid
Their homes for one thing or another

They say "Khawuleza Mama!"
Which simply means "Hurry Mama!
Please, please don't let them catch you!"

[Chorus]
Khawuleza Mama Khawuleza Mam
Khawuleza Mama Khawuleza Mama
Khawuleza Mama She Shi Za Wo

[Verse]
Naaaank’ amapolis’ azongen'endlini Mama, Patti, Khawuleza Mama
Naaaank’ amapolis’ azongen'endlini Mama, Patti, She Shi Za Wo

Jonga jonga jonga yo khawuleza Mama, iyeyiye Mama
Humm, Patti, jonga jonga jonga yo khawuleza Mama
Iyeyiye Mama
Ooooooy
Naaaaaaak’ amapolis’ azongen'endlini Mama, Patti, khawuleza Mama
Iyooo amapolis’ azongen'endlini Mama, Patti, khawuleza Mama
Jonga jonga jonga yo khawuleza Mama, iyeyiye Mama
