[Intro: Ladysmith Black Mambazo]
Impilo yami, umculo wami, mina
Impilo yami (Impilo yami)
Umculo wami
Umculo wami, mina (Umculo wami)
Impilo yami
Impilo yami, umculo wami, mina
Impilo yami (Umculo wami)
Umculo wami
[Verse 1 : Jeremy Loops & Ladysmith Black Mambazo]
I've been walkin' for days and days, listenin' to you
You keep on hummin' the same old tune
Impilo yami (Umculo wami), umculo wami
All of the things that you've been through
Match the scars on your face like tattoos
Impilo yami, hey bo! (Umculo wami)
Umculo wami
In a couple of days, we could be gone
Leave with nothin' and start travelin' home
Umculo wami, impilo yami, umculo wami
No time to waste, I've been here before
In the undergrowth, divided by the single moon
[Chorus: Jeremy Loops]
He said
In this town, I'm beggin' to find someone who can save me
And it's been tearin' me apart
Well, I've been waitin'
And nothin's been that easy for mе lately
But this city has my heart and I've been waitin'
This city has my hеart and I've been waitin'
[Verse 2: Jeremy Loops, Ladysmith Black Mambazo & Jeremy Loops]
I'm lookin' for somethin' now
Don't trip or you might stall out
Stop thinkin' you're too tall
Magnificent come around
Another trip in the cop car
Take time to reform, yeah
Just give me the fool for a while
Why live if you don't fall down?
Why live if you don't fall down?
Why live if you don't fall?
[Chorus: Jeremy Loops & Ladysmith Black Mambazo]
In this town, I'm beggin' to find someone who can save me
And it's been tearin' me apart
Well, I've been waitin'
And nothin's been that easy for me lately (Umculo wami, hey bo!)
But this city has my heart
She said
In this town, there's nothin' in my name unless I make it
And it's not written in the stars, but I got patience
And I'll tell my story even if it breaks me
'Cause this city has my heart
[Bridge: Jeremy Loops & Ladysmith Black Mambazo]
Help me with this heavy load
Help me with this heavy load
Help me with this heavy load
Help me with this heavy...
[Chorus: Jeremy Loops & Ladysmith Black Mambazo]
In this town, I'm beggin' to find someone who can save me
Nsize, ngiya sindwa
And it's tearin' me apart
Nthule lo mthwalo
Well, I've been waitin'
And nothin's been that easy for me lately
Nsize, ngiya sindwa (Umculo wami, hey bo!)
But this city has my heart
Nthule lo mthwalo
He said
In this town, I'm beggin' to find someone who can save me
Nsize, ngiya sindwa
And it's been tearin' me apart
Nthule lo mthwalo
Well, I've been waitin'
And nothin's been that easy for me lately
Nsize, ngiya sindwa
But this city has my heart
Nthule lo mthwalo
She said
In this town, there's nothin' in my name unless I make it
Nsize, ngiya sindwa
And it's not written in the stars, but I got patience
Nthule lo mthwalo
And I'll tell my story even if it breaks me
Nsize, ngiya sindwa
'Cause this city has my heart and I've been waitin'
Nthule lo mthwalo
This city has my heart and I've been waitin'
This city has my heart and I've been waitin'
